Thanks very much! Welcome!

Orange! Yes indeed! It was an option. I hope it still is! And you’re very welcome! I’m trying to say no to crappy mics. I just want to do good ones! Cheers!

Hahahahahahahah! I can always count on you to make me laugh, man! Hahahaha They were in your BED! Hahahahahaha Yeah, I’m done with junk. I want to review good stuff only. But sometimes I’ll review popular things that still might suck. I’ve got a few more stellar mics on the way! And then some amazing preamps. Some of this stuff I buy myself. And THAT’S why I live in a place that could flood. It’s basically a tent made out of concrete and chalk. I drive a 20 year old car. But I’ve got the best mics. Haha.

@@TheRecordist Likewise, as you always make me laugh!

Hahaha. Thanks! Isn’t that always the case! The purple one looks amazeballs! I agree!

Ooh. You sprayed it with nitro? Did you strip the poly first? And the AmPro II Teles are really fantastic!

Of course! Cat friends! The K87 review is coming in about a month!

It’s a special mic! You’re very welcome! Cheers!

I totally agree! Cheers!

Yes. They’ve done a great job! I’ll be reviewing the K87 next!

Hahaha. I was a HUGE Art Bell fan in the 90s! I even called in and talked to him back then when he was taking to John Titor the time traveller. Hahaha. I listened for years. I figured, if nothing else, these are all great stories! I continued to listen here are there until he passed away. Really a sad day. But what a show!

Yes. It is rather rolled off. Classic sounding. I like that. No I didn’t do a video about the restoration efforts. At the time I was losing my mind and trying to get it all repaired and replaced as soon as possible and never thought to video the procedure. But I’ll tell you this: I’ve raised everything off the floor. Everything. If ever I have another flood, nothing will be destroyed. All cabling. All amps. Even all my guitar pedals have been raised off the floor.

Here's the best way to make a mic that is flat past 15kHz: boost the 8-10kHz response by 6dB. Once you remove the sonic ice pick from your eardrum, you'll savor that smooth 20kHz fade, unless you're older than 13, in which case not so much. More seriously, the Mini K67x is not "rolled off" in the sense that we're filtering the top end. Compared to the U87 Ai (USD $3500), the Mini K67x has 7dB more output @ 15kHz. To be clear, both are rolling off in that frequency range, because large diaphragm capsules generally all roll off somewhere between 10k and 12kHz. The capsule we made for this mic, which is nominally a K67 but unlike every other K67 we've ever tested does not need circuit EQ to control the 10kHz response, has a smoother top end with a more gradual rolloff. The. U87 Ai has a more aggressive HF rolloff than the Mini K67x, Mini K87, Delphos II, Colares, and Aztec. Said another way, this mic is much less rolled off above 15kHz than most other LDCs, with the exception of those that are really hyped and harsh, although by the time you've de-essed and EQ'd those, they have no air left anyway.

Hahaha. As soon as I’m done with it! Hahaha

Yes it sure does! Were you the one who contacted Roswell? You had suggested to me that I get this particular one, and I listened to your suggestion when I was talking to Josh. I think you were right! Thanks!

@@TheRecordist I didn't contact Roswell That was another of your subscribers.... But I did suggest this particular mic to you on that same mic video thread! 😎 Glad you love it too!

Oh thanks very much! I love me some good tone!

Hey thanks, Captain! I can see why you’d love this mic as much as I do! It blew me away! Cheers, man!

Thanks, man!

As do I! I’m glad this one is on your list!

Haha. Sure is! Thanks!

Sure does!

@@TheRecordist Shure is better?

@@nickdual hahaha. That was autocorrect. So weird.

@@nickdual and many Shure mics are not better than this mic. Maybe the KSM 32 can give it a run, but it’s a whole different mic without all the warmth that this one has.

@@TheRecordist I thought you wrote: 'Shure = sure"

Yes. I agree. That’s a great solution!

Oh man! I’ve never heard of that. Are yours the version 2? I’m sorry to hear that.

@@TheRecordist Yep the V2s… It first started with the left speaker then the right started doing the same..

​@@pieterjansenvanrensburg7322 buy good quality cable's brother spend money on a good quality cables the prblm will go for sure u can go for neutrik cables

Oh thank you very much! I appreciate the kind comment! Cheers!

Hahaha. Thanks very much! And yes! You can use the 3.5 mm input to record a stereo input! I appreciate the kind words! Cheers from Canada 🇨🇦!

Hey there. Thanks very much! I’m not a big fan of the Tascam due to ineffective shielding in many of their recorders. But I honestly don’t have any experience with the DR-05x, so I can’t really advise you. But the 32 bits on the H1e is a nice upgrade if you’re into that sort of thing. Cheers and thanks again!

Thanks very much!

Hey there. The best wind protection I’ve found so far is the Rycote Baby Ball Gag balls. They’re like little blimps for the Pluggys. They’re expensive but work the best out of all of them. Hope this helps!

@@TheRecordist Thanks Dude!

Thank you very much! And oh yes, what a guitar! Woo hoo!

Cheers!

Oh man. I’m sorry to hear that, Dave! I did the exact same thing. I was holding his paw as he took his final breaths. I haven’t cried like that in years. Thanks so much for the kind words! ❤️

Hey there. Honestly, I almost never use 32 bit. Almost. Sometimes when you can’t be sure of levels, 32 bit is a lifesaver. It just gives you unlimited headroom. But generally, I don’t use 32 bit because it’s more work in post. But other than that, it’s the same recorder. Same exact thing. If you just adjust your levels and have no worries if capturing unexpected sudden noises, and you don’t need voice guidance, then the H1n is just fine. I’ve used one for years. And I used the original H1 for many years.

@@TheRecordist Thanks so much! And thanks for your wonderful explanation of 32-bit!

@@MosEisleySpacePort1138 thanks! And no worries! Cheers!

Oh thank you very much! I appreciate that!

Hahaha. I actually asked them for it!

Hahahaha. I should’ve went with either of those!

@@TheRecordist or perhaps in en Français? Capitaine Amérique du Nord! The red/white spandex and maple leaf shield would be magnifique. As for the mic. Hmm, this might drain my Lauten Audio savings plan…

Hahaha. Damn! You might be right! Well then where the hell was I??

Oh thank you very much! Cheers!

Yes, the 416 is more crisp, but that’s not always a desirable thing. Also, the 416 has an interference tube which can cause weird phasing issues indoors. Ideally, both are great to have in your kit!

Woo hoo! Congrats! You gotta tell me how you like both those stellar products!

Thanks! And yes, I’ve used the sE08 mics before and I fully recommend them!

Hahaha. You got it! Cheers!

Hey. Oh yes. You can totally do that. You’ll get better audio that way than into a camera!

@@TheRecordistThanks so much for replying. I’ll be ordering one! Thanks again! ❤

Hey. You’re right about all of it! I have many visually impaired viewers who have told me they use the voice guidance all the time and it works for them. So it may be the right move for you!

No worries! Glad I could help!

No worries! Cheers!

That’s why I made chapters.

Hey thanks, my friend! I appreciate that! But ho-ho-hold on a sec! What mess? That there is an awesome soldering job if I do say so myself! Hahahaha. But man oh man I’d love to come build a Blondie with you! How’s it going Chris? How have you been?

And of course, I asked too soon. Rycote Windjammers. Is the ones from FEL or did you order elsewhere (cheaper)? Did the foamy come with the Rycote?

Hey there. Depending on the conditions, I either use the Rycote furries that I ordered with the Clippys, or for stinger wind, tbe Rycote baby ball gags. The ones right from FEL’s site. They’re fantastic and made for the Clippys. Hope this helps!

@@TheRecordist Thanks!

Hey there. Thanks very much! Well, I would NOT recommend the Slate ML-1. I have the ML-2 and they’re ok but nowhere close to the Universal Audio DLX (formerly known as the Townsend Labs L22 Sphere). If you want a fantastic modeling mic, check that one out. I actually reviewed in here on my channel. The DLX. As for mics I recommend, it really depends o. What you’re going for. Here are my top picks: LARGE DIAPHRAGM CONDENSERS: Flat all rounders: -sE Electronics sE4400 or its little brother the sE4100 -sE Electronics T2 or the T1 -Roswell Pro Audio Mini K87 Colorful or character mics: -Lauten Audio Atlantis -Stam Audio SA-87i -Dachman Audio DA-87i -Roswell Mini K67x -Lauten Audio LS-208 Tube mic: Lauten Audio LA-320 SMALL DIAPHRAGM CONDENSERS: -Line Audio CM4 DYNAMIC MICS: -Shure SM57 -Shure SM7B Does this help at all?

Haha. You’re welcome! Cheers!
