OneMic Series - Cole Panther - Time Stores

[@niozikpro5812]

5 times I am listening to this . . . cannot explain the feeling . . . Amazing . . .

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Thank you, Cole is the real deal.

[@68Snaps]

Another absolute gem! And hats off to you videographer. I think the soft black and white look fits the music and the concept perfectly!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Thank you Chris, I agree.

[@DonFranko68]

I almost can't believe that there is something beautiful nowadays: a microphone and a sensational and beautiful song with excellent musicians. thank you for this wonderful production

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Couldn't agree more!

[@NIGELANGST]

Great to meet you Cole. Beautiful music my friend ❤

[@TobyJonesDrums]

It's so refreshing to come listen to sessions like these that all the work comes from these musicians with a beautiful touch and there's almost no post-prod done. Thank you for providing this series ❤️

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Glad you enjoy it Toby!

I bought an A440 last year and i think have been using it how its not intended. To record vocals up close. Almost too much low end but this sounds amazing. Im definitely going to try backing it up and getting some room sound or maybe eq’ing it. Ive only used the mjc twice since i bought it

[@gravityfreaksmusic]

I use my R44 for very up close singing and it sounds fantastic. Ear and no fear. If you like it it's good. Cheers

[@kipmillwee6936]

About the most beautiful thing you could want in a song. Thanks PC and JC.

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Wow, thank you Kip.

[@1968joseph1]

Well, that's about the most fantastic song I've heard in a LONG time! Thank you!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

I agree Joseph.

[@alaskandar]

Mesmerising…. Great performance + great place + great mic + great sound engineering skills…. Which reverb/setting did you use btw ?

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Thank you. I used the UAD EMT 149

[@8mysteryjo]

Wow....love this.

[@ISMAYmusic]

lovely!

[@potterma63]

A severely underappreciated art form. Excellent job!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Thank you kindly!

[@spressley4008]

So beautiful!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@macphail8]

Love this.

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Thank you Derek! More coming next with a new artist.

[@buickwilson]

Excellent and so inspiring. I love the less is more approach to recording. Also, the rooster crow in at the end... Was there a lot of EQ adjustment. I know the 44 is smooth, but surprised that the vocal had good upper response and figured the eq might be pushed up a bunch. The verb really gives great space and width..

[@onemic-theminimalist]

No, that's the sound of that mic. Very little EQ was used.

[@scott001music]

Beautiful!!! Great recording John!!!

[@GordonGidluck]

Really nice performance and recording!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Glad you like it Gordon, more coming from the Barn Sessions. Ismay 10/11

I'm obsessed with the idea behind 'one mic' (especially, it being a ribbon mic), but prefer the stereo pair -- I want to be able to close my eyes and still visualize where everything is. For electric bands, you simply put tape Xs on the floor, to mark each person's spot, and then move the Xs around during warm ups, to get the mix right. The tape marks aren't necessary, but enable a multitrack process (of course, you do not move the mic or adjust the gain), in case there aren't enough musicians to play live. If the drums are too loud, you push them further away from the mic.

[@onemic-theminimalist]

I have only used tape on the floor a few times. Once with David Grisman because they are all playing acoustic instruments and moving around. The other times, I put one piece of tape in front of the mic where the lead vocal needs to be. The tape keeps them from getting too close. This is commonly used when conventionally recording lead vocals. I can't make these recordings with one stereo field; there isn't enough room, and that would force me to move them all further from the mic. In binomial, I have two stereo fields to work in.

[@Not-Only-Reaper-Tutorials]

the demonstration that what counts are the Artists. Having real ones, you don't need "holliwood fx". Not the gear/plugins/marketing stuff. Bravi! Fantastic!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

That's what I try to accomplish. Get you as close to the artist I can.

[@Not-Only-Reaper-Tutorials]

@@onemic-theminimalist ou do it TOP!

[@patrickmckinney8610]

I love this series. i have a AA R44 like this one. Any reason you use the R88 more often? Thanks as well for the behind the scenes videos.

[@onemic-theminimalist]

Most of the time I want a stereo recording. In this case I felt it would work well in mono.

[@Morten_Nielsen1979]

I hope you can help me. Can I make a recording like this just with a microphone, my tablet and a good speaker with a good backing track? I sing and play guitar. So it will be three sources of sound.

[@onemic-theminimalist]

To make a recording like this you need years of experience, excellent equipment, and talent. It's like asking, I have a car, can I win the Indy 500 next year?

[@davearooney]

John, great work! So, just a single mono mic now? Would love to hear how you mixed this one!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

LOL, just added a bit of eq, and reverb. Glad you dig it.

[@billsallak4887]

@@onemic-theminimalist It's an absolutely beautiful recording, and i was going to ask about post-prod stereo reverb, because when I summed this to mono there was just the slightest image collapse. This isn't a complaint at all; everything in this series is wonderful to hear. Thanks so much!

[@onemic-theminimalist]

@@billsallak4887 Yes, I add reverb to many of my OneMic recordings. In this case, the UAD EMT-140 Plate.

[@rickenbacker40011]

how do yall get a stereo image with this one mic? Are you duplicating tracks?

[@onemic-theminimalist]

I added a bit of stereo reverb.

[@rickenbacker40011]

@@onemic-theminimalist ohh nice! amazing job as always, it sounds soooo gooood

[@josuepascual9134]

Amazing recording JC! Did the rooster sang for real at the end of the song or is just a little bit of post-production? Loving it anyway, thanks for this and thanks to the rooster for such an amazing end 😉

[@onemic-theminimalist]

That is me having some fun, more coming from the Barn Sessions. Ismay 10/11

[@j.charleshiggins5503]

Sounds great performance great as well but I think we’re being deceived. Pretty certain they’re taking direct from acoustic guitar

[@onemic-theminimalist]

His guitar pickup is in his amp that is set up clean and loud.
