So I know you said no external eq was used, but what about the eq on the TG itself? Can I assume that the tone controls on the TG were used at different settings depending on what instrument it was in front of? Hi Quint I assume you mean the TG Microphone's onboard controls? Yes, the mic is setup using the best possible configuration for the source and what Wade thought would be apropos for use in the track, there's no additional processing outside of the microphone or following TG preamp. Yes, I meant the tone controls on the TG mic. I guess that's why it sounds so much more "finished" even though no other processing has occured. What were the settings on the kick? |

Huh...I thought spock was Wade. I guess I'm confused who is speaking to us. The mic sounds fantastic! Really impressive. I'm plotting what I can sell to try to get one. It's out of my budget at the moment. |

He had albums and a band called Vulcan Freedom Fighters all based on Star Trek. Thought it would be a coincidence if you were the same fellow.

ragan jampa stormymondays chessparov guitfiddler Again make sure 1080P is selected in the YT player. This 1 min vid features a drums, bass and guitar track recorded using TG Microphones; no additional processing (other than the whole track coming up +3.5 dB in the video edit.) Quint the pattern and pad toggles, are on the mic near the top, like on the REDD Microphone. That sounds great! It's really surprising that there is no processing on that. |

I was scared to open this thread for fear I'd be subjected to multiple from behind picture's of JK's sweaty ass on his elliptical. My relief cannot be overstated.  Those fears resolved, this is a mic I could be interested in buying at some point. I just wonder if I'd wind up really liking one of the eq settings more than the others and find myself never straying from it. That's probably not a thing that everyone has to worry about but it's a thing I worry about concerning myself. |

That's probably not a thing that everyone has to worry about but it's a thing I worry about concerning myself. Not sure why that’s worrying...I could say the same thing about the VMS or the Kemper...or the bridge pickup on my Tele I have no experience with the Kemper but my main objection to the VMS is that it starts off with a crappy mic. The mic limits how good the entire system can be. I'm assuming the quality of the Chandler mic is heads and tails better than the Slate mic. If I may appropriate your Tele analogy, it's like the choices you get from a Tele or a Strat. Moving the selection lever gives you different flavors. And while I prefer the sound of the neck pickup when I'm noodling, it's not always to sound I'm looking for on any particular song. If this mic were to work out that way, it would be a good addition, but if I found I was leaving it on one setting all the time, I'd have paid for stuff I'm not using and my money might have been spent better elsewhere. However, as I implied in my original post, this may be something that only concerns me. I'm not suggesting this should be the reason anyone else doesn't buy this microphone. Based on what I've heard so far, I'd be inclined to give it a shot, so what I wrote shouldn't be seen as a knock on the TG or an attempt to discourage anyone from buying it. |

Thanks Adam. Please tell Wade my Germ Comps are still my absolute fave pieces of gear ever, after a decade of use. |

Thanks again Adam/Spock, for your hospitality, yesterday at the Chandler Booth. REDD sounded terrific (like last year!).
TG microphone, in #1 setting, (and also with the setting w/extra TG harmonics) was the ticket for my voice-also exceptional!

I decided to pull the trigger on this. The design with the onboard EQ seems really interesting to me and the sound examples in the video were really impressive. Here's hoping the results are equally good!
