I am Simon, a singer-songwriter living in Vienna and this is my UA-cam channel.
I always wanted to write songs, but somehow only managed to write a handful in the past decate. But in the last few months during the COVID-19 crisis it somehow clicked. I wrote several new songs, which I am very happy to present you here.
While recording the songs in my home studio, I am testing a lot of audio gear and am happy to share those insights with you, too.

The World Got Older - Simon Schuett (Original Song)
Got to play my song „The World Got Older“ in the beautiful mountains of Südtirol, Italy (Vinschgau region). It was an amazing experience to perform with this view and in this calm atmosphere.
Recorded with an iPhone 13 Pro and a Zoom H6 Mobile Recorder.

thanks for this. the nt1 just sounds less brighter and more bassy. both sound good on your voice.
I got the same result as you.. NT1 sounds flat, NT2A sounds almost "3D". Other reviews make the NT1 seems like it's as good as NT2A, I'm not sure how, or why.. but there's a huge difference between the two.
I prefer GTZ U 87.
For the vocals…. I found the Rode nt1 is dull (I own one), the at sounds a lil fussy/ unclear to me, and the tlm sounds crispy asf. Tlm 102 all the way. It makes all the other mics sound squished in comparison. The tlm seems so wide and full
tenía un rode y comenzó a hacer un ruido al tiempo, muchos dicen q es solo humedad y q con un secador de cabellos se soluciona pero a mi no me funcionó, decidí votarlo a la basura y compré el audiotechnica q es mucho mejor, con tan solo una mínima corrección con los plugins suena bárbaro, tengan cuidado al comprar rode, ese es su gran problema, mucha gente le pasó lo mismo
In decided to build my own.
Thé Roland looks like it wil much better on a pedalboard fixed with scratch tape.
Beautiful..
Can you power the roland with 9V adapter?
Und warum auf englisch und nicht auf deutsch?
Can u turn it around and use heel
Yes, sure you can! I don’t usually use it that way, because I have it on my pedalboard, but it works as well.
Please do ist with your feet , so you get a very good cayon bass drum on the horsekick pro... its not made for handclapping ! ;)
I'm a guitarist and mostly stand while I play and sing. In our duo I either have no percussion, kick, or tambourine. I use a SPD One Percussion for a tambourine sound and analog Ortega Horse for kick. I keep both pedals behind me and hit with my heal. No fatigue. Also, with two pedals I never have to make adjustments which would be cumbersome. I tape both pedals down with Gaff tape at every gig to keep them from moving. I have considered using the SPD One for kick sounds. It sounds good enough to me.
I agree with the comments about the ergonomic issue. Do a three hour gig and you’ll be barely able to walk . I don’t know what the solution is but they should have consulted a podiatrist fora better foot configuration.
The NT1 was very poor for the guitar, very muddy, but had the best low end on vocals. The Neumann lacked low end on the vocals, but had a smoothness about it. Despite its lack of low end on vocals, it had the best low end when recording guitar. AT 2035 is right in the middle, doesn't quite have the low end of the NT1 for vocals, but has a better low end than the Neumann. Isn't as nice on the low end as the Neuman on guitar, but isn't disastrously muddy as the Rodes. Best all round - AT2035 Best Vocal - Rode NT1 Best for Guitar - Neumann
I owned a horsekick by Ortega, and tried it with my acoustic duo. When we had a gig the sound technician of the event complained that our gear made a noisy hiss sound. I thought maybe cables or my guitar but it was the Ortega horsekick. Returned it and got a new one at my music store, but again at a different gig we heard an hissing sound (new pedal!) so if you’re playing live gigs this isn’t your best choice.
Very well done demonstration and review. Thanks!
Thank you 😊
Why not customize the Roland with a detachable foot pad. As well as, rubber grip on bottom or velcro to another base altogether for the bottom of the kick pad That's one other user did. . Anyways, thanks, for the very informative review.
For sure, that is what I would do.
Hope that's not the actual room you recorded your EP in. The acoustics are......desirable.
I knew B was that Audio Technica because of how loud its self noise was on the vocals. Rode has a self noise level of -4. Lowest I've seen in specs across all price ranges. The TLM was the most balanced with a low self noise.
Came for the comparison, ended up getting chill with the "Smile"! And you got yourself a new sub ✨
the Neumann won it all. it has a warm full sound
Rode is sibilant , At is better and tlm 102 is best
Finally something that I acutally searched
It would be good if one of these connect to a vst then you can use any drum sound
Yeah! But you can add a custom sound to the SPD Kick, too. And there‘s also a different version of the SPD that you can fully customize with your own samples.
They need to learn how to draw a horse lol
Hey i am a singer so which mic will be good for me Nt 1 signature series or Nt2 i m getting these in same price so please tell me ?
Similarly, maybe the Nt2 doesn't justify the price...
lol
great video but i hear an deutsch akzent
Ive had all 3. I can work with either but the tlm 102 works best for rappers. I think its the brightness that kakes it easier to achieve a modern voc mix
Iwas between b or c gor vocals. C has a high sound frequency but at the sometime b sounded better although it didn't have that.
Neumann both clear and smooth and has body. For me it is the best. I like Rode for vocal on the other hand. I want to have both mics. AT2035 is out of comparison i think.
Horse Kick Pro: Bassdrumsound im Kick ne nervende Höhenpieck.
Well according to your recordings, I liked Rode for vocals and Neuman for guitar. 2035 was a bit harsh
RODE NT1 5gen
Thank You. Great Video.
Nice review. Have you ever tried any home made stomps?
Thank you! Yes, I‘ve experimented with one of those. It didn’t work for me, because it needed lots of eq to sound decent and lacked bass frequencies on its own.
I use the SPD1, but I place a board in front so my foot is the correct height. The kick sounds on their own aren’t the best, but with some tweaks it’s not to shabby.
You need a pop shield. That’s obvious
For acoustic guitar, NT2-a sounds very thin, not as full as NT1
Really Cool Sounds 🎶🎵🤘
Well, wow. I owned two of those microphones, Rode and AudioTechnica, but I worked with TLM102 as well, however I totally mixed them except knowing which one is NT1. I thought the worst of them, the most harsh sounding sibilants is the AT2035, but no it was Neumann. This is with the vocals, however with the guitar it is much more clear as AT2035 sounds almost always awful with acoustic guitars. I like working with Neumann microphones, however I believe they are really overrated, and people often hear some magic that does not exist.
Hey there! I own an ANNAlog (passive pickup), but it's a bit quiet for my purpose: I'm using a Roland Mobile Cube, and even when volume is on max, the kick sound still is not very loud. I wonder whether getting a Horse Kick would solve the problem, as it is an active unit (battery powered)? Can you confirm that an active unit is noticeably louder than a passive one? And is it possible to connect the Horse Kick directly to an 1/8" AUX input? Thank you.
Hi! I can confirm that it’s a lot louder than a passive one. I haven’t tried connecting it to a 1/8“ input and have sold it since, so I cannot tell you more about that. But the SPD Kick (kept that) works with 1/8“.
Thank you, that helps a lot, @@SimonSchuett!
There is not enough differences between the 3. They are all good.
All those stompboxes have the wrong ergonomics. Toes high heel low. It will wreck your lower leg front muscle. Very unnatural. As if they all follow the first (wrong) design..
You don’t have to put your foot that way around. If you want to use your heel, go ahead. The horse kick, sitting in a chair, tapping your feet, you’ll find it very suitable. If you’re a guitarist, you’ll find that the SPD is much like any guitar foot pedal. And for that matter, if you’re a drummer, both high-hat and bass drum pedals are set up with heel as pivot and push down with toes.
for example ua-cam.com/users/shortsGwrXe5b1ilM?si=qzBwKOrf14JIQxUh
i think it woud be more difficult to use if you are standing up. but sitting down i find i can stomp without stress. also can be used turned around, as someone above mentioned.@@makingmusiconline2309
Yeah, they should've designed them to be a cavity instead of a box.

I own an AT2035, and was offered a Rode at a good price. I came across this video trying to find out if a Rode would be a significant upgrade from the AT2035, and as it turns out, it would. So I'm buying it. Thanks for helping me decide. I also was curious about the TLM102, so that was useful too. I'll probably get one in the future (or an SM7B? or both?). Thanks again!
102 sounded so much better on guitar. Detailed upper mids. I didn’t prefer the 2035 on vocal, the 102 once again has more detailed mids to my ear.
1. Neumann TLM 102 2. AT 2035 3. Rode NT-1
Thanks for that review. To the point well done.
