thank you so much for staying on point, helping the average joe engineer like me and not shilling all your sponsors gear like all the other channels do. please never stop
Thanks Dave...I can't wait for the preamp video
Great Content! Thank you for doing this... 👍
The SM7B is great for singers with bright voices and a lot of sibilance. It's also great for rock music and more aggressive genres. I absolutely love mine.
The only thing I would say is that you need to factor in the price of an in-line mic preamp. Most interfaces and a lot of external mic pres won't have enough gain to power the SM7B without a lot of background hiss. An in-line mic preamp boosts your signal by about 25 db. I recommend the SE Dynamite. It costs $100. But most people go with the Cloudlifter, which I believe is $150 now.
So yeah, it's still a very affordable microphone. But unless you already have a very powerful mic pre, you may have to spend an extra $100 on an in-line mic pre.
Interfaces preamps should never be a first choice anyway
Sold my Neuman tlm 102, cause I used my Rode NT1 way more. Best mic i've ever used!!!
I'm using a Rode NT1/SM7B combo in my home studio with great results! 👊🏾
Mic pre?
@@professorjustinmedia2326 I use Neve 88RLB in my studio.
Warm Audio WA-47jr., is definitely a great budget mic as well. Tons of examples on UA-cam. Great video brother.🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great advice. Fox. U forgot Sennheiser MD 421. Great for male baritone vocals and much more. Low output but roll off setting on Mic is awesome. You rock: 2 mics!
Dope
Great video David! Can’t wait for the other video to drop!
Great video! As both a producer and vocalist I agree completely most budget mics are too bright; however, I’m a very low register bass singer who tends to make hyperpop type of stuff and for me budget mics can sometimes work great. When I first started working in the studios at my school I was so frustrated because some of the high quality mics (particularly ribbons) they had sounded so different than my shitty home set up and I just didn’t like that sound lol 😭. Found my sweet spot w tube clones of the C12!!
I think you shouldn't skimp on recording gear so if you want the sound you hear on most records these days your chain should look more like U87Ai (Telefunken U47/Manley Reference) - BAE 1073MP (or if you like the Nashville sound Api 512 or Capi 312) - TubeTech CL-1B (1176/Distressor for rock and aggressive pop/trap/rap). This is some general guide, not a rule, but more often than not you will find these in the chain regardless of music genre. This chain will set you back ~8300 Euros in Europe (assuming you can still find a CL-1B) , but if you really want the sound of the charting records, that's how much it takes (given that you have the talent to put trough the gear, both engineering and artistic wise). I'm not being a gear snob here. The idea behind this concept is simple: if you want a, let's say, Pino Palladino bass sound, you will get a P-Bass and put LaBella strings on it and run it straight trough an Ampeg amp; if you want Drake's vocal sound, you get a U87 and put it trough a Neve preamp and a CL-1B comp. Of course you don't have the right hand technique of Pino or Drake's voice, but the gear they record trough will get you in the ballpark.
Rode NTK still my fav $500 mic.
Great video as always!! Can thank you enough for your insight!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻
GREAT SHOW.. I've been using the Shure KSM32 for 20 years. I own a number of great mics, but I can't tell you how many times this mic is the mic of choice and even beats my more expensive neaumanns for some singers voices.. Its also great for acoustic guitars, percussions and 6 feet from a guitar amp w a 57 on the cabinet...
Very useful, thank you!
Fantastic video, sir! \m/
The song “you belong with me by Taylor swift(1.6 billion views)” was recorded with the avantone mic , it sound good but there is a 3D quality which it lacks which is evident in the track , other than that it sounds real good
i'm surprised you didn't mention the aston spirit. great multi-purpose mic for the price
Nice video! I'm kinda lost on microphone preamps, though. Maybe you can do a video of that in the future as well?
AT4040 is solid but in that price range I prefer the Miktek MK300, which has a transformer and more polar patterns. Best mic under $300 IMO.
You such a value to the audio community...im learning so much. Could you help and explain the cheapest and least cables to get 32 channels from a console into the daw please ? Ive been researching the Motu stuff and really like it. Also i would be using a Mac m1 or M2
You talked me into trying MOTU so picked up the MK5 and gotta admit it sounds pretty fantastic. The only thing I hate about it is you have to turn the volume control up and down 10 times to make the volume go up and down but other than that it works great without any issues.
What about Lewitt LCT 440 PURE microphone?
i recommend a booth!!!!!!! i hate that shit where they say you could record in the room to give them that feeling... bruh what feeling? you can slap a reverb after that and play with it!!!! XD
make a review on antress black dragon modern eq A clone of Pulteq eq adds Analoge warmth ads good air and transparent but adds a good color which you want .. adds harmonic destrotion please do make a video a review on it.
Michael Jackson used the Shure SM7b to record his vocals on the Thriller album. Taylor Swift uses the Avantone Cv12 to record her vocals
Prince liked Sennheiser MD441
@@Camille-nf9bl And the AKG C12
I know you like the 32...
Any opinion on the Shure44 mic? I can get one at a good price. Excellent suggestions, by the way. I'm just getting a home studio set up.
Is a great all around mic
@@mixbustv
Thanks. I'm in on it. Need a good overall, versatile quality mic.
Very nice options. Sorry, to go a bit over the top, what about de lauten la 320. I just see praisings for that mic for vocals and acoustic guitars
David, can you do a review of the Advanced Audio CM87? I have the CM87 (~$400 USD) and the CM800T (~$800) and they’re my workhorse mics, i’d love to hear your thoughts on them because in my opinion they’re very hard to beat for the price range.
I have experience with 3 AA mics, don't remember which ones, but they were absolutely killer
Greatt mann ..how about 1000 range?
Mic pres? PRETTY PLEASE....
rode nt1
Had the Sennheiser mk4 and found it to be too thin and crispy for my taste.
I need a Neve board to record one rap vocal
@@officialWWM I'm pretty sure he was sarcastic.
What about Ntk mic?
regaurds sir

Motu m4 or audient id14 MK2 for mixing? Great video David!
If you're not using hardware, it makes no difference whatsoever for mixing
@@mixbustvThanks David! If I ever need to put us through an analog car instead? Audient?
@@PAKBOTOFFICIAL converters are a bit better on MOTU, it was more if you want to expand later, no optical on motu, but if you only run 2bus, then motu
@@mixbustv thanks David!
What do y'll think about Neuman TLM 49 ?
Great stuff! Can't wait for the mic-pres!!!! You rock David!!!
I would add the M88;) I always find myself having too much low mids with my voice with sm7. Having harsh sibilances and no room I’m interested by ribbons
The m88 is a great mic
Got the M4 because of you, David and I have yet to find even one thing I regret about it. Honestly for me, the less options I had with microphones, the better I got because it allowed me to focus more on technique than be obsessed with the gear. And for some reason these days, people just starting off tend to believe that condenser mics are the only mics that can give you a professional sound simply because they see everybody else with them. And that was me at one point. Spend a whole $500 on a mic only to find im happier with a $100 sm58. But the reason for that is not that the $500 mic was necessarily crap but I bought the $500 mic for all the wrong reasons to begin with. What did I learn from this? Always have your OWN reasons, not use someone elses and expect to be happy
Great advice! Also, love the Bella Kelly stuff. The V4 is incredibly solid in that price point. If someone wants a vintage rock sound and has a sm57 laying around, try it. BRMC used it on plenty of charting songs. Dead Weather vocals were an old ampex dynamic through a guitar amp. Sometimes the scratch track makes the final mix. Probably not suitable for everyone though.
Thanks Dave for your insights...what are your thoughts on the electro RE20 in comparison to the sm7b?
Too much low mids expecially for vocals for me
I bought the KSM32 second hand about a year ago and its one of the mics that i always gravitate back to. In its price range its just a superb and very well built mic that tolerates a ton of abuse. It handles transients incredibly well and i found that it sounds great when you sing a bit further away without a pop filter.
That mic is underrated. I've recorded w mine for 20 years, some of the best vocals, guitars.... amazing.
Hi Dave, you talk about amazing MOTU preamps. I have an UltraLite mk4 and no matter which input I use (mic pre or line in), there is always pretty loud noise on the input. If I give the input a bit of gain, it goes up to a -30 dB peak at 18 kHz with a pretty big range around this. It's in fact so bad that I feel like I need to do a brickwall low pass on 17ish k to get rid of that peak tone at 18 whenever I record something. Do you have any idea if something may be wrong with me setup? A friend with an Apollo has much less noise on his inputs.
Something is definitely wrong with your unit, definitely contact your seller
@@mixbustv I will, thank you!
I have a Rode NT1 and I love it
Gotta admit, I bought a TLM49 and I've been wondering if it was a waste of money, if I should have just gone with a SM7B or something & used the rest of the money on a BUS compressor especially since I already have a AT4047...
Figured it would have been worth it buuuuut not so much anymore lol
One thing a lot of the pro audio channels overlook with mic recommendations: the environment that people are going to be recording in. LDC mics sound amazing, I love mine, BUT they pick up everything which can be a challenge in say, an apartment. I started using dynamic mics recording on tour in buses and hotel rooms and now I use them at home too. Have an SM7B which is great for male vocals, and I actually prefer a cheaper broadcast dynamic on my own voice: a Rode Procaster. Both need a lot of gain into the interface, but you can get a Fethead signal booster cheap for them if your pre isn’t up to it. Plugs right into the XLR and powered by phantom power
@@mrnelsonius5631 I do have my room treated, not professionally mind you but enough to where there's no discernable reflections.
Currently running it through a Neve1073LB but given I have no actual formal training my brain just went "Mic cost more, must be better"
Which I believe to be wrong lol
Don't get me wrong I love the mic, I'm just wondering if the money would have been better spent elsewhere.
@@GothicCoalition with that mic, at some point it will be really worth the investment. Even for tracking my own voice as a producer/songwriter I like switching mics up to get different textures on parts. If you don’t have a good dynamic mic though like the SM7B I highly recommend getting one. At first that mic is like “it sounds kinda muffled and boxy compared to a condenser mic”.... but then you compress the shit out of what you recorded with it and crank up some high freq bands without it getting harsh and realize *that’s* a sound you’ve heard a thousand times. If you can’t tell I’m a fan of dynamic mics haha.
Sm7b is one of the last mic’s I bought out of every mic in world I’ve tried lol… wish it was my first. Great mic no matter what anyone says.
@@joelk2342 agree with you here 100%. Makes a lot of stuff easy imo
