    Pretty sure the vast majority of churches use dynamics, so the title should be: How to increase mic bleed, get condensors.

    I was using a wireless Shure KSM9 but i switched to a Beta 58A due to mic bleed. Im Happy with the results now.

      +1, Beta 58s are working great for me

      Is there much difference between Beta 58A and SM58? I record our rehearsals (in a very well treated rehearsal room) with a digital mixer and the bleed from the drum into the vocal mic is almost as loud as the vocal! Very hard to mix afterwards.

      @@themadpaddler9043 we recently changed the layout. I used to be facing the drummer and now I’m in the same position but rotated 90° (side facing the drummer). Plus we added two absorption panels in front of the drummer. It made a big difference but drum bleed is still an issue in our mixes and one of the reasons for which we are considering to move to electronic drums.

    Big fan of the Audix OM7. Nice vocal mic with better sound than most and best feedback and bleed rejection I've found. But I'm also a drummer and suggest investing in some Zildjian Kerope cymbals. Yes, very expensive.. But very quiet cymbals with incredibly good sound. Some cymbals that are good for bleed have no sustain, just a short burst of sound. The Kerope series is a full well bodied cymbal with lots of sustain, but lower volume than almost anything you'll find. You can turn up the drum over heads and get great sounds, but don't get all the bleed into the vocal mics.

    You mentioned condenser capsules..
    What did you mean? We can buy capsules of our choice and put them on different mics? (New guy here).

    • @stevenalfonso7364
      @stevenalfonso7364 3 роки тому +3

      Some wireless mics have the ability to change the capsule (the mic head) to something else in order to get a different sound or desired result, like how Lee wanted a different capsule to reduce cymbal bleed. I've mostly seen aftermarket capsules for Shure mics.

  • @Gretsch0997

    @Thomas.Hoermann71 3 роки тому +3

    Think the headline here is a bit misleading. It should be clear for everyone that condensers like the Neumann KMS105 or the Shure KSM9 have an incredible sound for lead singers but they are usually not the best choice for a loud environment on the stage.
    I personally do not like the sound of the mentioned cheap mic (SM58 or the beta58). But they are constructed for exactly this situation: A very loud rock band on stage with a lot of bleed.

    Well yeah that's because the 58 has less highs than the other mics. If you EQ it to sound like a condenser, you will get cymbal bleed of doom.
