Found these shootouts last night and enjoyed them. I thought I would share.

Funny, I just stumbled on these the other night! What a great shoot out, there are clearly some winners and favorites here, but it goes to show how well all of these mics perform (especially with a talented singer like this) even if they’re not the "best" fit for the voice.

Thanks for posting this Vincent. I look forward to checking it out. I did a shootout of these four mics at Blackbird about ten years ago. I still have the files on a disc somewhere. I came away thinking that the mics were all great and were not as different from each other as people would have you believe.

With this female vocalist I liked:
251 & 47 (could've taken one over the other in certain passages)...
& then the 12 & 67

Vid 1: 251 sounded broken. Nothing like Dolly or the other wonderful 251 I have heard. Kevin Gates uses T Funk 251 thru a Neve based pre into a CL1B & it sounds great so maybe it’s a voice thing but should sound amazing on everyone for $10k imo The c12 was a lil sibilant when she really got into it but sounds so real just like the 47 gives this intimate personal quality. I really like the 47 & c12 the best here. The 47 really had a lifelike vibe like I’m in the control room but The c12 felt like she was in my ear singing to me  |

Why was that posted in off topic? That couldn’t be any more on topic?!

Why was that posted in off topic? That couldn’t be any more on topic?! An excellent question. Perhaps we can combine the threads? |
