Like the retro sound, Im also a keys player and always think these days, why do we have hardware synths etc with in built sounds when we just use in th box stuff anyway, and often its better or very close. Is it a mental thing, or a feel good factor to play with the hardware. OR could we drop laptops (except for midi sequencing), and just use hardware , as surely the Montage M etc are pretty damn good at producing sounds?

For me, I'll use whatever I have on hand, as I don't really have a permanent place to have all my hardware set up. I'll use plugins if I'm up in my apartment, and incorporate some hardware when I'm down here in the church area. For me, no matter the situation, it's about making music and getting to that zone as quickly and efficiently as possible.

why us such a mic for this? Just use a Lavier/lapel or a basic SM58... I know they give the impression of 'cool wow it's like a radio studio' but really unessesary in many of these types of video. when the sound of an SM58 and this one for 99% of people is the same.

@@tristanmichael2051 I don't own a lapel mic, and it probably won't be happening soon as I don't record videos on a regular basis -- only when my schedule allows. Not worth the investment right now considering how little I actually use it. Right now, I'm quite happy with the condenser, and the shockmount further isolates the mic. Also, don't get me started on my complete hatred for the SM58. Lol

@@pianomikeoct Every speaker is different, so no matter what system you use to listen to the M8x, it will sound a bit different from speaker to speaker, even if there's no external EQ. It's best to listen through a setup that you are really familiar with. That will give you the most accurate sound of the M8x.

As far as I know, the problem is when you record a speaker using a mic, you won't get the sound that the people sitting in audience would hear. So if you want to hear how it sounds through a speaker system, why not just play this video through a system you are familiar with.

It all depends on the song. Drum sounds come from a combination of UVI Beatbox Anthology 2, and Steven Slate Drums 5. Drums on Going The Distance are SSD5 and an Alesis DM5. All sounds on Fairest Is The Light, including drum sounds, are from Arturia CMI V, a software emulation of the legendary Fairlight CMI, hence the song title.
