@@DailyRiot Yes! The transformer definitely adds a nice element of smooth distortion.

@@SirSwiftusFunkellwerk Yes I use them all the time for music production. However, this is a RAW mic test for mic comparison purposes, and so no post processing (including a DeEsser) was used for this video. Essentially, this video is meant to exhibit the true RAW nature of this microphone without any interference of post-processing.

@@ZPJ_Studio right On 🫵🫵. That's what makes it great and honest 🤘🤘

@@lyricsstation5680 I have a pair of art tube mp/c preamps and they definitely make any mic sound smoother, more vintage-like. They do bless the mic with a pleasant tube goodness. The Avalon 737 is better, though the art tube amps are no joke either. Follow the link below to find out more on this: th-cam.com/video/uCQKRAvcqlI/w-d-xo.htmlsi=uOqgOZcNgtLHV4cc

@@ZPJ_Studio i watched this video of you sir .that why i asked that question .but it was for 3 years ago .right now you have more experience .i really love u87 vintage .is there any better way to make my Tlm 103 voice a bit like u87 ? .maybe in this 3 years you recognized something else is better ?. I really need your helps .whit my prays for you 🙏🙏🙏❤❤

I have not enough money for Avalon 737🙏

@@lyricsstation5680 Well, your original question was specifically regarding the art tube preamp. In the case of this particular question, I’d like to point your attention to the video linked here: th-cam.com/video/L6kppTDHUM0/w-d-xo.htmlsi=mvHGpW9IYClyiePI The Soyuz Launcher is not that expensive. You can buy a used one for a few hundred dollars. It should give your mic a nice transformer sound, and your TLM 103 should sound more similar to that of the U87.

@@ZPJ_Studio thank you very much my kindly teacher 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤❤ appreciate ..

@@brosephgraves Thank you!🙏

@@freelancerrashedsbs 🙏 Thank you!

That's a Good Idea. Are you offering to help? …I don’t mean to be disrespectful, but it’s up to others to subscribe. Thank you for all your comments tho!

@@cassandrahuskey8866 A shotgun mic is usually a long and slim vocal mic for video recording. It is mostly super cardioid so as to pick up vocal sound from a distance.

@@cassandrahuskey8866 This particular setup is for allowing a mic to be plugged into the guitar input of an guitar amp or the HiZ input of an interface.

@@cassandrahuskey8866 Hi. Is your guitar input set to HiZ? Is it manual or automatic on the scarlet?

@@libbyssubs6938 It’s a cheap plastic one that I sometimes reach for.

@@HarvinderSingh-yy8th Yes! I THINK SO TOO!

@@BalisongFlipping I’ll have to check them out. Thank you.

@@MurnerJoel In my opinion, the Avalon is a better fit for the U87, making it sound like silk. The Neve makes an already hot mic even hotter. EV RE20 is a good alternative option with a transformer based preamp (from a Soyuz Launcher to a Neve).

@@HarvinderSingh-yy8th Why would Lady Gaga use an SM-58 to sing live at the Oscars when she could use any mic? The SM-58 is the king of stage. The U87, arguably the king of studio. All depends on who you ask. Both great, with different applications and price tags. The SM-58 is magic in the studio with a C-Suite C-Vox™ Noise & Ambience Reduction UAD plugin, to eliminate self noise. Awesome vintage tone.

@@user-mr3nn3bx5f TLM-103 with Avalon 737sp for silky vocals, and XLS with Neve 1073 for classic vocals. Both great, doing their own thing..

@@tjhavens7947 It should work!

@@DawahProject That is the very reason why I prefer the vintage U87 over the U87ai or the TLM-103. A good De-esser can reduce the issue as well.

Sorry, I did not keep any vocal recordings with this mic as they got erased in the recording process due to the sheer lack of uselessness in any intricate mix. If you are I terested in an upgrade, I sincerely recommend thr UAD Sphere LX due to it's sound and versatility. Of course, the DLX would give you even more options. The SHURE KSM32 is more of a one trick pony! Can work on guitar cabins, and are great on overheads.

@@fixedbypaul Yes! That's it! Thank you! I put that in the subtitles. It sure was great sifting through all those records. 👍Those were truly the good old days.

Thank you for the well detailed comment. It is very much appreciated. 🎛️🎚️🎙️+❤️=📀

I appreciate the positive feedback.

-9 dB is approx. -65% IMHO

I bought mine in Asia but I assume the European version would be identical since they all run on batteries and not off of the electrical grid. The charging units needed for them would have to be different since the voltage and amperage are different in different parts of the world.

I am glad to have helped.

To make such an adapter would require a legitimate need for it. What specific need would that fulfill? Would it be for an older mic with a 1/4" plug?

It’s one of my favorites.

Why doesn’t your church buy them both? They aren’t that much of an investment. Then you could have either or. Often times vocalists prefer one over the other. After all, voices are so subjective; one mic might compliment a certain voice more than another, depending on their vocal characteristics. Moreover, it’s hard to know for sure unless you really try them both on a certain voice. Nonetheless, with that being said, I personally would get the SM86 if I was really pressed to make a single choice. I love my SM58 the most though. It’s so much more organic and vintage sounding. Disclaimer: That’s merely my individual preference.

@@ZPJ_Studio Thanks. Will get both and see.

I appreciate the positive comment!

Thank you!

Every mic has its own application, and thank goodness for that. All the more reason for a nice mic locker.

Thank you! … What is your price bracket? That is, how much are you willing to spend? As I explained in the video, an inline Soyuz Launcher at the $200 price range, an SSL VHD (500) or WA73 at the $300-500 price range. A Neve 1073 LB (500) at the $1,000+ price range.

Try the SHURE SM7B or the SM58. They won’t break the bank.

That’s right! You can never have ‘too much’ gear, only ‘not enough’! You never know when you may need something, so it’s best to have it, and it never asks to eat.

The Phantom eats 48v. Yummy

my friends want me to mix vocals and always make me listen to a song name damso - pyramide and i always try to match the intensity of the vocals but it doesnt work ...i dont know if its the mic or if i need a pre amp...

There is nothing wrong with your mic or setup. It’s the nature of this mic. Not very present. So it’s good for overheads as it tames the harsh nature of cymbals and snares. It’s a good standalone mic for a solo vocal track, but forget putting the track in a mix. The vocals get lost.

@@ZPJ_Studio Thank you very much 👌👌

Yes. So true!
