I like the top end on the Serrano better TBH. The second mic sounded slightly cloudy in the low mids?

The description says "Shure Bomblet"...that was confusing.

I love that this weird mic exists.

I own this and I didn't know you can pair the channels! Thanks for the tips. I'd be curious to see a video about combining two of these together (I don't know anything about ADAT).

This is fun seeing this done with analog gear. In regards to gating, I've heard of some people using certain gate plugins in with key spikes but I don't really understand what the advantage is so I'd like to hear more about that if possible.

I subscribed, you toooooo

Lars is a great businessman.

Good practical approach. I will try it! Thanks for the video 🙏

Try the United 87 Clone! I think its as good as the original

On the Hardwired album any fast double kick part is CLEARLY comped in with samples, as the kick sounds noticeably different in those parts in every way. Mostly the release and overall tone. Very noticeable, and we all know he simply can’t play like that in reality anymore. Even when they play the songs live, he omits those fast double kicks and ‘cheats’ a bit by the way he subtracts kick drum hits.

The United is quite nice for the U47 on kick-out thing. Which is great, because not many can afford a Neumann U47 just for kick out. I reckon the United would be good for drum mid-to-far room mic pair too. Again, great, because ... even less can afford a pair of Neumann U47s just for drum room mics.

Nice that the console speak dante!

Haha nice one ULF! It’s been a while since you did this video, So I’m wondering if you did get some tom mics as a birthday present? 😁 604’s is a nice microphones and a Classic in Live sound. But I think the 904:s are a little bit better with little more treble and punch. They are also a bit more durable since they are made of metal. Perfect when you have wild hard hitting punk drummers on stage.😂 Also interesting about the 421:s I have 3 new ones and they sound about the same. Have you tried the Lauten Tom mics? They seem to have the benefits of condensers like the milab but with better rejection.

@4:15 Sounds a bit like old SSD drum samples :) @4:42 Sounds like a technical/mixing issue, there are suddenly two very different sounding kick drums playing at almost the same time, the latency between those two kicks makes it sound like a flanger/echo effect.

Maybe it’s just taste in processing, but I feel like there is very little ring in the processed version. There wasn’t much in the original snare sound as it was but the little that was there sounds gone. I’m wondering if this is a tradeoff with this technique

Hello! Could I use an amp-head without a speaker by using the emulated line out directly into a 8 track mixer or into an audio interface? Thanks

Maybe he is hitting the right kick hard amf hitting the left kick softly?

That patch cable method is pretty cool

Come play Richmond with us 🤘🦍🤘

ALSO: as usual - Ulf did the great job recording and mixing this live recordings. All hail Master Ulf (our wolf). Impressing! a big WOW from Karelian metallic/crusties!

Saw them live a few years ago in Moscow. Great band! Totalt Javla Crust or how do you say it in Sweden :)

<3 Birdflesh! Love the track

Radical. See you at Obscene Extreme in a couple weeks.

Sounds great! Cool tune.

Hello friend, you forgot to say that the box acts as a ground.

That's some sick noise🤘

That's our main sound since a while, as we are really into LDOH and Mortician, that's the guitar tone and i never found any good tube amp with enough distortion. As well, this old version doesn't have the same tone as the other pod.

Awesome, guys! Stoked for your upcoming release 🔥

😂

Uuuuuuuh baby 🤌🤌🤌🤌

Where the hell did you learn all that bolllocks about the "Swedish death metal" setting ... you know it was a joke, right?? I'm Norwegian, and got the HM2 from a kid up the street in 1984, so I was a second owner of an HM2 from 1983. We used those for sculpting almost any sound at any level with ofter pedals into our Peavey and Roland combo amps or Marshall stacks set absolutely clean! Take a listen to David Gilmour's About Face , Toto Fahrenheit or Innocence is no excuse by Saxon ... you kids have been fooled all the time! Dude, it's a multi-stage distortion PREAMP not supposed to go into an already distorted amp, it will sound like utter SHAIT!!!

For the audio transformer, i juat found the isolated audio transformer i don't if it will work or not, is this is the same thing??

Hi Ulf, I'm wondering if you've tested the latest Serrano Vintage 87? I believe Carlos has tweaked it recently. I would love to hear your thoughts.

I’m so onboard for this! I used to love running my guitars through a plexi but in the end I switched it out. Big regrets. Haha

Which amp models did you use for the bass in the demo song?

I have the Peluso.... It's a very good Mic... There's a bit cheaper equivalents these days as the markets gotten so crowded... And there's no need to try to get super close to the U47..... I do really like a tube in before the preamp phase.... And the transformer is also very nice. There are so many good options.... The output on the Peluso is perfectly fine....

I have tons of old tech (Including Pod Pro), I and can tell you, IMO, the Rolland GP-100 tones and so musical and amazing compared to to the Pod stuff of this era, the Pod sounds absolutely brittle and like a toy transistor amp when compared to the Rolland. Even the effects in the Pod are hard to describe... whatever the word is for "The opposite of lush" would be a good description

I have the VT, and it's outstanding. Don't like the cost? It'll quickly payoff if you're not in a static environment. Regarding the mic-pres, deal with that upstream.

Great video thanks! I have 3 toms and use a sm58 without the grille, a md 421 and a Beyer M88. When I get more money I'll try to get all the same mic

This was a fun video! Thanks for uploading!

Three Doors Down debut album was recorded with this tech. They won a Grammy for that album.

Do you have any demos for this mic?

I saw hobo and recording thought thats a bit of me. Mans living inside mini abbey road.....

Still some very useful tones in that piece of gear. An old guitarist I used to work with had one. Fun to record with.

Shit happens at festivals. I was at Psycho Las Vegas 2 years ago and the sound for Mayhem and Wolves in the Throne Room started off rough as hell.

Thanks for a very cool and Nostalgic video! My first experience of line6 pod was back in 2000. The guitarist in one of my old bands used the bean shaped POD. I didn’t like it at all at the time, mostly because he couldn’t dail it in and the clean sound was twice as loud as the dirty tone 😂. A couple of years later the guitarists in another band I played in started to use Line 6 Vetta amps, And big floorboards connected with Ethernet cables. That was quite advance for its time. And you could blend different amps and output in stereo. One of the guitarists was a big Line 6 fan and also has the Variax guitar! At one show he accidentally switched his guitar so it sounded like a Banjo 😂. I used that to record a lot back in late 2000s and we still have one Vetta left.

Badness Old School!

Just use a crunchy tube preamp and push the Marshall preamp tubes. Now you've got two or three stages of tube gain. Throw the tube screamer in for a mid boost.

cheers!

Messhuggah use these on stage, right?
