  • OneMic - the minimalist recording series by John Cuniberti demonstrates that an entire band can be recorded with only one stereo microphone in one take. Each recording session is shot in 4k video on a Sony a7RII by filmmaker Nathaniel Kohfield. What makes this series so different from other live performance videos is that the artist is in complete control of his/her presentation. This means that the sound, balance, dynamics and stereo image is decided upon at the moment of creation, not in post production. The artist (band) is responsible for the final product. There is no editing of the audio or video. It’s as honest as it can be including imperfections. This organic presentation isn’t limited to “acoustic” music as seen with live classical and folk music. In this series veteran recording engineer John Cuniberti records bands with electric guitars and drums that would normally require a multi-mic, multi-track approach. This is not the first time this has been done but this technique was quickly forsaken soon after the multi-track tape recorder was invented and with it a loss of a level of musical intimacy. The OneMic series demonstrates the positive aspects of the minimalistic recording process of the 1930s but will be captured on modern stereo recording equipment.

    The R88 is seriously going to be a must-have for me if I ever own a studio.

      It's a very nice mic in stereo or mono.

      It really is! I love its tonal characteristics. Additionally, I think the challenge of recording an entire band with one microphone is quite a fun method, where the room and the musicians' distances and placement from the microphone becomes your mixing console!

      @@onemic-theminimalist perfect balance and a beautiful natural stereo sound.
      A mono recording with one ribbon mic may sound awesome as well, please try it at least once, many of us will be interested.

    Cool series. Thinking the snare man could have been backed up a little.

    Is the room reverberation coming from the real live room in this recording?

      Some UAD EMT 140 plate was added during mastering.

      Ah thanks. I thought it sounded a bit too rich to be the room. Very good none the less.

    Tell the bubblehead who gently dissed Little Richard that he will need at least one more lifetime to even be mentioned in the same sentence as Little Richard. Oh, that was satire? I hope so..
