Mic Shoot Out Guitar Amp SENNHEISER E609 E906 vs BEHRINGER B906 vs SUPERLUX PRA628 vs CAD AUDIO D80
Ever wondered how a Behringer B 906 compares to the Sennheiser E906? Well, here's your answer!
Microphones / Settings used:
Sennheiser e609
Sennheiser e906 flat
Sennheiser e906 hi boost
CAD Audio D80
Superlux PRA-628 MKII
Behringer B 906 flat
Behringer B906 hi boost
All tracks were recorded through an SPL Channel One preamp into a Persons Converter and then straight to hard drive and exported with a slight bit of dbx-style compression to match levels and dynamics better (GR 1-2 dB max!).

    I'd say the 609 did the best job without coloring the sound. I think the 906 is a little hot probably not the best for cranked high gain amps but better for anemic sounding clean sound sources like quiet vintage amps to bring out the dynamics and color. The Behringer was like a wet blanket. The CAD was a little bright. I'd like to combine the CAD and the 609 or the CAD and the 906 in flat mode loud high gain guitars. 609 all day for Fender combo. Great comparison. Thank you!

    This is a helpful video but I do wonder why it was necessary to use an inline preamplifier?

    Rode NT5 is the best mic in this video because it is the quietest mic, and it gives all details well. Especially se electronics and others should resolve the noise problem because it is so important in terms of acoustic sound. Rode have been satisfying customers for years because they know how to make a mic and they are honest when they give information about their products :) NT5 is quieter than se58. opss.. If you don't prefer Rode NT5, you're going to be regret like those who didn't prefer Rode NT5. I know, se58..etc have attractive boxes, interesting advertisement, new technology so you may think they are quality products, but their performances are not as good as NT5 :)

The se8 I hear a lot of hiss noise...not too impressed. I mean yeah, they sound really nice, but polluted with background hiss is no good.

Shortly Rode NT55 has Omni Polar and cardioid pattern for one mic but Rode NT5 has only cardioid.

      @ProAudioIQ 4 місяці тому

      I know it’s an old post, but just adding my two cents that I own a stereo pair of sE8 (cardioid and Omni capsules) and mine don’t have any self noise/hiss issues mentioned but they definitely do let me hear any hiss or noise in the room. I’ve also used a lot of Røde (including NT5) over the years and actually went with the sE8 pair because of the higher noise floor of the NT5. NT5 is a beautiful mic too though. Just too noisy for orchestral recording vs the NT5 for me. 16dB vs 13dB self noise. 3dB does make a difference in that setting. As a nice bonus, the sE8 pair came with a metal case, nice stereo bar and more importantly the mics have built in high pass and pad built in. I hadn’t used sE before and bought these as an alternative to one of my favorite mics historically, Neumann km184 (also 13dB self noise) that was just way too much money without noticeable performance beyond the sE8.

      The technology of dynamic pressure transducer hasn't really changed in the last 60 years. Nor has what the human ear (brain really) perceives as pleasant or unpleasant. Maybe one reason why many old microphones are still popular today... By the way, don't believe these recent production genuine Shure SM57/58 sound the same as the ones manufactured in the late 1960s. Straight from the horse's mouth (Shure): "The fundamental design of the SM58 has changed little since 1966, but manufacturing processes have changed, glues have changed, plastics have changed."

    Too long did not read : Oktava or SE8, then NT5, and no C4 mkii for me. Okay, I listened blindtest the 4 microphones with the wav download. I listened to things at random, took some shameful notes as the random player put the same mic twice in a row and I could "hear differences" lol, but after lots of tests on 3 different headphones something stood out a few times. In my notes I contradicted myself a few times on the mics so I guess this is subjectivity, and this isn't a high scientific test, I could be wrong, I invite you to have a friend rename the files and do the blind test yourself ^^ Overall the Oktava and SE stood out to me. The Oktava as something very sharp and "clinical" in a good way. The Se sounded not as sharp but a little more "fun/warmer". I liked them both for different reasons. But they stood out as my favourites. I consistently noted the NT5 to have less lows, sometimes I worded it as "something missing" or "EQed". and very sharp/bright, not in a bad way just "clinical". But it was very good. Just compared to the Oktava they were very comperable but the Oktava had that little more sharpness and lows to it. I wouldn't go for the C4 mkii (especially now I see the price) I noted a few times that it sounded "thin" or "sad", some recordings (the singing) had a electonic humm to it. Overall it was my least favorite. Now knowing all this and considering price / budget. NT5 for 300€ a pair aren't my favorite but they're the cheapest and hold up well, I shall go for them ;D Id forget the C4. If it was 260€ or 300€ maybe id consider them. The SE8 and Oktava are a tight choice. I think if they costed the same price, id go with the Oktava they cost 60€ more (430€ vs 370) but do come with more accessories. However considering the SE8 is cheaper, and I found the sound more enjoyable most of the times (even if not as "sharp/clinical"), I better go with what I find most enjoyable for cheaper. Does seem like you get what you pay for in either case. This is my subjective tastes and my experiences, I had a hard time hearing differences and all in all they all sound very good. I encourage you to listen to them all in a blind test with random playback and see for yourself which one you like most, and if you agree or disagree with what I said here :D Would love to hear if you experienced it differently ^^ Cheers.

      Also if I had to justify why id go with the Oktava over the SE8 if price was equal despite preferring the SE8 overall. I don't do much stuff live, more of field recording or at home music, so I have time to sculpt sound behind the mic. Id rather have something "clinical" and add warmth to it. Rather than something "round and warm" out of the box that I can't be edited back to sharp.

      You might not be aware of this, but because microphones react differently to plosives, a pop filter was omitted on purpose, to see how each mic would handle them.

    I can't understand how the people said the se 8 is better than the rode. To be honest I can hear on the se 8 a lot noise. The nt5 is more silence

      in a practical studio environment none of these mics will cause noise problems. They are all very quiet

      The rode has an over exaggerated high mid to high freq which is quite piercing..The se8 is really in a class of its own. Sounds really amazing.. then the Oktava
