Good and CHEAP! All my covers on my channel were made with a super cheap stagg Sdm50 for vocals, and I don't feel the need of any other microphone so far. I sing very loud and the sound doesn't get distorted or any thing. Tested a much more expensive mic before, and when singing a high note, the sound cracked. So yeah, back to my cheap Stagg Sdm50 and happy with it.

I’ve had the Townsend labs sphere since 2018 and I don’t say this lightly….it’s an absolute game changer in my studio. The mic on its own is incredible, but to be able to change mic emulations while mixing to fit the singer or instruments in the mix is an amazing tool to have at your fingertips. They are pricey yes but worth every penny if you’re looking to take your productions to the next level. Highly recommend and the extra ocean way and Bill Putnam mic plugins are worth adding!

Great video Warren & team. I own 3 of the original Townsend labs branded L22's, and they are without doubt the best mic emulation systems on the planet. So glad they are getting a reissue with UA ownership behind them. I expect they will get much more recognition with the weight and scale of UA's marketing dept behind them. Kudos though to Chris, Erik & later Julian, the origonal team behind it.

Explains why they were giving away a L22 with an Apollo last month. Had a feeling things were being reissued or upgraded or something. I like that they made a new one that’s ‘mono’ and one that is stereo. Best mic modeler I’ve ever heard, I’d like to buy one at some point when i have a space to record vocals again.

@@CreativeMindsAudio It looks to me like UA intentionally **disabled** stereo in the LX (which *also* has dual capsules, so should be capable of it). And the DLX is the same mic as the L22, other than a less flexible pad (only 20db for the DLX, both 10 and 20 for the L22). Whole thing screams marketing and, with the L22 selling a few weeks ago for $1200, pisses me off that the choices are a disabled mic or paying $300 over price for the non-disabled mic.

@@berkeleybernie good points! But I know that it was sold as $300 off for promotional reasons and all. Also dual capsule doesn’t always mean stereo. It is possible it is just a software limitation, but there could be other hardware limiting factors as well. In any case both are world’s better than slate or antelope’s offerings.

A little mistake there on the Beyer ribbon at about 9'30" in. You said it sounded "a little scooped". Of course it did. You left the filter activated at the 2 position. Unfortunately you left that filter on for several of the mics after that. Made for some pretty anemic sounds. Sorry. Do those again? I've owned and used the earlier Townsend version of this mic on multiple different instruments, amps and voices for about 10 months now and i find it an amazing and very useful tool. I a/b compared the models with my Neumann 87 and my vintage AKG 414eb with the brass yoke as well as some other mics from my collection. The simulations are deep and rewarding. Both the 87 and 414eb were nearly identical including off-axis response and proximity. I own and use the Ocean Way mic models from UA and love them and I love the characterful models in the Putnam collection too. Some of my gear-lust dreams have been finally realised. Great and useful demo!

Never thought I would hear a Wilco cover on this channel (by way of Woody Guthrie's lyrics), so this was such a cool surprise. Modeling mics are going to continue being very formidable, especially for home studios. It also makes for an easier way to compare the sonic characteristics of various mics. The base mic without the emulation sounds fantastic as well!

Many of the changes are very subtle because her vocal performance is very controlled and not pushing the microphones to their limits, which would bring out those differences a lot, but the switch from the Coles to the Sony was like turning on a light in a dark room. Both models are gorgeous, but represent her beautiful performance so differently. The cool thing about this microphone is that in the plugin you could blend a C800g with the Coles ribbon and get the best of both worlds. This mic really lets you get creative in ways that perhaps you wouldn't bother with otherwise, but could potentially be a great strength to the overall production.

All the emulations sound like the mic with no emulation but different post processing. What I mean is, they don't sound like different microphones, it sounds like the same microphone processed differently. I have most of the microphones emulated here and although the emulations seem to have similar curves to the emulated microphones, they are also missing a lot. For instance, the emulated Royer 121 is dark and has a figure 8 pattern as does a real one, but it doesn't have the detailed low mids and the punch the 121 has on a vocal. The 251 emulation is bright, but the real 251 soaks up the harsh hi-mids like no ones business and as a weighty low end. The biggest thing I've noticed about the two popular emulation microphone systems is that the sibilance sounds pretty consistent throughout emulations. This may be due to characteristics of the capsule they cannot yet figure out how to undo. The sibilance on the Slate mic really bothers me. The Sphere is a little better. With the progression of AI, plugins in the near future will "rebuild" the vocal rather than modify it. They will rebuild the vocal the same or as it was recorded with a different mic and hardware, different room, different performance or even a different singer. They'll be able to change the words too.

Hi Warren, fantastic video as always. I am thinking of buying the DLX mic, I love to hear your personal opinion on my story so I can make the best decision. I am an professional opera singer and do my recordings at home. I have a apollo x4 and most of the UAD pre amp emulations and other good plug ins for vocals and mixing. I bought the Charteroak SA538 I think 20 years ago, it is that old, however, I didn't use it on a daily basis. The challenges I run into using this mic is that my voice sounds diminished, like it is locked up in a box and the power of the voice and also the clarity is not there - it sound completely different from what my real voice is. That means if I want to bring power in and clarity I have to do tons of processing to get the sound a little better, it is kinda frustrating for a 1700 euro mic. I made a vocal booth using professional materials hoping the sound would improve by getting rid of my living room over-acoustic frequencies. No difference on the power of the voice. There the vocal booth is closed with the professional blankets I get even more muddy sound. I recorded close by 3 inches, and 6 inches, 12 inches to see if it is because the mic cannot handle the operatic sound - the farther I stand away the thinner the sound becomes....I have no idea if it is the type mic I bought, or, that 20 years made it warn out although it always diminished my vocals. The DLX, do you think in your opinion and experience with the mic that it would be the solution for me and finally get my voice recorded as it is, or, do you think that the mic without any processing and even without the UAD different mic options, that it would capture my voice a lot better than what I described about the charteroak studio microphone! Mostly opera singers are recorded with 2 mics to get that wider kinda stereo field sound as you hear on classical albums, or Pavarotti's recordings. The DLX plug in does have a stereo option to record with and I wonder if that would mimic the way opera singers are recorded. What do you think? You can hear the vocals sound FREE and not boxed in and weak - I think you know what I mean...I think they probably not do a whole lot of wild processing on opera voices beside maybe some compression and reverb if it is not recorded in a hall - Hope you can shine some light into my recording world 🙂and looking forward for a positive reply hopefully that the DLX will make a big difference for my recordings...Thanks in advance...

Been listening to some shootouts made by other people and was surprised by how far off the Sphere is from some of the mics it is supposedly modeling. Another video compares the DLX to LX and shows how much internal mesh basket resonance/ambiance the DLX has. That's not something their plugin can remove. I guess that's why it costs 1/10th of many of the mics it purports to model.

If I was starting out, this would be the first major mic that I would buy. First of all it's a really nice mic that you will never outgrow, with it's own sound that someone will probably emulate twenty years from now. : ) If you are going to spend KRAZZZY bucks on a holy grail microphone, Sphere will let you narrow down what you really want as compared to what you think you want. But most importantly for me, swapping emulations during mixdown underscores what I already knew. You can make a great recording with any decent/appropriate mic because people listen to music not microphones. A few DB of EQ used on most vocal tracks, makes more difference than the difference between a U47 and a C12. That said, I still want a damn C-12 because I can't help myself.

The best version of emulation that I personally have ever used was the Focusrite Liquid Saffire 56. I could actually tell the difference between the preamps. So much so that I did switch within sessions, depending on what was being recorded. I cannot use the LS56 anymore because it is a firewire interface. I wish they would make another. I wanted to get the Slate Digital VMS a try but I was getting out of music when that started to gain steam. This may be my next purchase. I will scour more reviews and listen with my headphones. UA may have another hit on their hands.

What's a bit strange about the reviews of microphone emulation software (as with Acustica Audio's Lava) is that they never compare the sound obtained with the real thing. If you change the sound of the Sphere to that of a Neumann U47, you should compare it to the sound of a real Neumann U47 to check to what extent it lives up to its promises. What I see now are mainly reviews that show that microphone emulation (with or without a special designed microphone) can improve the sound (which is of course very positive in itself, but enhancing the sound can also be done with other processing), but unfortunately few people investigate if the sound of a virtual destination microphone corresponds with its real counterpart. So when you record with Sphere emulating a AKG451, you shoul be simulatanious recording with a real AKG451 besides it, and then compare both tracks.

Would this mic do a dynamic close range recording just like an SM57? After all, it's still a very sensitive mic. Right? So how would you use it as a dynamic for low leakage applications?

It is not a dynamic mic thus it probably would not work the same. It is more about the sound than about physical qualities....

I'd like to see a component comparison with their new mic (the LX). Other than the form factor, the disabling of stereo, and fewer included models, what's the difference? The L22 and DLX are the same mic (except for a change on the pad; the L22 can do 10 or 20; the DLX only 20). It seems to me that UA has **intentionally crippled** stereo (180 coincident) recording in the LX even though it has dual capsules as well, in order to push people to buy the DLX. Kinda hate that kind of marketing gimmick, tbh. Basically rebranding and offering a crippled mic at a lower price point. Feh. They had the L22 at $1200 a few weeks ago. Not going to pay $1500 for the same mic. And not going to buy a crippled mic.

Hi Warren, I noticed that in the multitrack te voice is panned to the left but it isn't on your mix, I'm just starting to mix so I don't know what to do 😵‍💫

The mic works by recording front and back and then is able to create the different polar patterns

I thought this was going to be a video about mic’s. But turned out to be about a mic that you need a vst for. Little bit misleadingly. Sounds awesome though and seems easy to use. But make it clear what you are reviewing please.

Don't know much about microphones... Yet my Behringer 8500 with vocoder and twidling the knobs wasn't great. Now my SE V7 (Billy Gibbons edition) is more forgiving (picking up more ambient).

Wow. Nice voice, but the styling kind of ruined the song after about the second pass. I've heard the mic shot out against other mics with a reputation. It's definitely not bad mic, but usually lacks that certain something when side by side.

Geeesh yeah... this thing aint cheap. You got that right. hahaha. It had BETTER be good for that price. EDIT: Haha yeah... using the wrong mic models still sounds good - has a kinda retro vibe to it. It just goes to show that it doesn't matter about the mics really, its all about the performance. A great vocalist will sound good with the wrong mic. As good as it could be / sound? No... but good all the same? Hell yeaaaaah.
