    I have fulfilled my promise! The video about an electronics mod of my Oktava MK-319 is here! After my first video about how to mod an Oktava 319 without buying any other parts (video here: • DIY - How to significa... ) I got a package from Bill Sitler with an Oktava kit - bunch of parts and notes how to do that.
    You can buy the kit here:

    I hope this is helpful for you. Stay tuned for other recordings!

    A huge increase in sensitivity, eq balance and clarity with the mod. It really sounds like something costing 5K!

    i just got my mk-319 at a thrift shop, along with an sm58, for 20. dollars. which was unreal. seeing all these mods are cool, but I do feel like it doesn't seem totally worth it in my opinion. If you have fun with it then by all means one should go for it, but the difference in sound is there but it doesn't quite become "better". Anyways, super neat!

    I’ve just bought MK-319 on an auction. This video made me decide to do mod with it in the future. Amazing experiment.
    For me as an amateur piano player recently hooked on audio recording world, you are the role model and I always enjoy your video. Great work.

    For a "complete amateur " you sure look like you know what you're doing! The soldering looks neat and tidy.

    Beautiful performance! Your test procedure was logical and made sense, congratulations on doing the mod yourself.

    I think the mod is okay. The modded 319 sounds clearer and a bit more dynamic. The CM3 sounds great as well.
    Thank you 😊

    The real difference I notice are the lows are improved greatly and it sounds a little more open. Mids sound about the same on my impefect monitor setup.

    It was definitely worth it, but only you can tell if you "did some shit." (I'm not sniffing around in there.) I want to mod one of my 319's, but I am not so brave with a soldering iron. I love the sound quality improvement. So open, and so natural.

    Thanks for the video! Really nice piano playing. I liked the original 319 the most of the three. I've got a 319 with michael Jolys floating dome mod(IIRC both premium electronic mod & something done to the attachment of the diaphragm). I think it sounds good but it's very sensitive to low freq rumbling and bumps to mic stand etc. Now I'm a bit curious for the original 319

      Thanks for your comment. The bumps from the mic stand are a standart feature of mk319. Bass rumbling - something is wrong... I am gonna mod my pair of mk012. I will post it here. Right now the package got stuck in the post.

    With the mod I heard more clarity in the decay when finished playing and not so much while playing.

    Beautiful piece!! Can I hear it in full anywhere?

      Hello, if you mean the piece I play as a test piece, it is the first prelude from 8 Preludes by Miroslav Kabelac: ua-cam.com/video/VBxnGqIpaL0/v-deo.html
      If you mean the ambient then look here this: ua-cam.com/video/cZy_Kswxn3E/v-deo.html

    Mic needs a mod to isolate the cartridge/element from vibration of the whole microphone, no one addresses that problem and I will DIY my own cartridge isolation fix when I figure out details.

    Quali valori dei completi e dove li hai sostituiti?Puo mettere un link con il disegno?Grazie.

    Ah man! I think I got a fake.. I recently purchased two of these, comparing with a 220 which has the same capsule, but dual. One of the 319's is significantly darker than both the 220 and other 319. I think I may have to bookmark this for future use if I want to use these as overheads..

    Well I couldn't hear any difference but at least you definitely did not destroy your mic :-)

    Горячий привет из России! Привет, мой друг! Я так и не смог понять, что ты делаешь с микрофоном? Ты полностью его перепаиваешь? Делаешь апгрейд? У меня тоже Октава МК319))

    Il 319 modificato risulta migliore, più presenza e suono più gradevole e ricco di calore

    By creating and applying modes you abuse mic's creators. Every creation is designed and created the way it is , like a child being born. Every company is proud of its creation. If you are so smart- go ahead and create the best mic from scratch!

      Sorry, but this is non-sense. Everybody knows about the poor quality of Soviet electronics.

    • @sapinit4322

      Everything can be improved - car tuning, processors tuning, straps on electric guitars neck, mics included, these are no piece of art, but just electronic device. And the mod works for this type of application quite well, is for sure cheaper than selling the mic and purchasing a different one with some characteristic which has been achieved with this mod

      no, I'm gonna be smarter and just put a small effort into something that already requires a small effort to make it sound good for my ears
      go and grow your own seeds and bake your bread, because putting cheese on your bread is abusing the creator
