I saw the post of the video of someone using a 47 on voice and 87 on guitar with the chandler gear and it got me thinking..
So I threw up my 87, plugged it into the 1073DMP from BAE and quickly cut the song.
Took from start of idea to finish of tracking about 5 mins longer than the song, 1 take.
Then I sent the track out to the Soundcraft Delta for a little EQ, patched in the Warm Pultec and did the tiniest of EQ with it.. then put it out through the STAM SA2A, which is doing up to .. wait for it.. 10dB of Compression!!! on the big notes. (so its a hair over compressed in a couple of sections...)
Johnkenn this is the Taylor Mahogany Mini I was talking about.
Then it has the Bricasti M7 over the track on the Wide Room Preset (which is what was just sitting there from yesterdays session)
A couple of things...
I should do more of this, just playing and singing with an acoustic guitar instead of trying to play instruments I can't play very well (bass and drums)
Mono recording , using the Bricasti is a real option... where before it sort of wasn't.
I would really love to try the chandler stuff doing the same thing.. hint.. any chance of a down under demo? 8)
The U87 is just a great great microphone. I don't hear any spitting or popping

let me know what you think, keeping in mind the context of how the recording is done.. 8)
cheers
