Mojave is THE BEST. Don't question it, just use their mics and sound amazing. The MA1000 is a very special microphone. It's got the class of a Telefunken 251, midrange of a 47, and a gorgeous silky top end like a Sony C800. It's so so so good.

Love seeing where and who the gear comes from. Especially mics. Royer doesn't like dynamics - only ribbons and condensers. Heil doesn't like condensers - for the same reasons I often avoid them - they hear everything, lol. I don't know Royer's background in recording music, but sometimes, the mic that isn't hearing everything,.. is the perfect choice. Lots of lead vocals over years done on lowly 57's. Love his ribbons on cabs coupled with a 57. Cheers.

I finally bought one a couple of years ago. Boy was I wrong! This has turned out to be one of the best microphones for my voice I have every used! I also have been saying exactly the same thing about the TLM103.

So... the Mic Man himself doesn't get his own Lavalier/lapel mic? Odd! 😉😉😂😂 Nice to see him talk, though. Seriously, nice tour of a company with some very nice mics. Too bad no actual manufacturing facilities were shown, makes one wonder of some of the mics are just assembled there and sourced elsewhere or offshore? The Neumann trashing and the "we WIN lots of shootouts" and "costs half/sounds twice as good" salesman style pitching was very uncool, though: the true greats respect their even greater elders (especially if you're basically cloning them!), plus how good a mic sounds is for the users and history to decide, each brand's spokesperson will say theirs sounds like pure gold or god whispering in your ear, yet... 🤷🏼‍♂️

@Producelikeapro Жыл бұрын

David didn’t want initially to be on camera, so yes, he didn’t get a mic. Sorry if it annoyed you and stopped your enjoyment.

@PrantoKoX Жыл бұрын

@@Producelikeapro Not at all annoyed, watched it all and enjoyed the video, was amused by this detail because it's odd and/or ironic isn't it? Thought it was obvious, no need to get irritated. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Have a lot of respect for David Royer, BTW, his talent and technical dedication are very evident in all he's done, and in his words in this video, too, so for some of us it's kinda precious to hear him speak.
