Aren't the other two microphones just louder than the U47? Or does it only seem that way, because they have more highs? How does one actually set the same levels for different microphones that obviously have a different freqeuncy response?
Hi Thomas! Of course, they have different frequency responses, but that's exactly why we do these tests. All we can do, once the material has been recorded, is normalize everything to 0db. This way, in the past, we discovered that some mics do "compress" a little bit, or at least be less dynamically transparent. In the end, it's all about finding the right mic for the sound you're chasing. Best!
hyped highend is almost never good.. this video shows it. U47 kills it... that being said the 214 is not bad.. a little EQ and it would work fine!... oh, and the drummer.. he's a monster!
I definitely love the high glossy sound of the 214
On some occasions, they surely are the best "go-to" option!
Best!
Cazzola non è solo amico è un grande
forget the mics, that man is a swinging cat
You got it right man..
@@YolocoAllRightRiserva yes!
Kickass video
Thanks!

it's probably because the U47 is in mono that's why it doesn't seem to take up a lot of space
Great drummer! 👏😃🎶
Many thanks.
Meraviglioso Amico mio

Thanks for your comment, we're happy to have been useful.
And yes, Gianni is a legend.
Best!
Nice swing! U47 for my money 214 = too bright. KM184 = pretty top end U47 = smooth &v musical
Thank you for your well-thought feedback.
Best.
