    I’m guessing it might be used on the upcoming ELITE album? ❤

    I have the AKG 414XLii matched set as well. They get used on every session. Such a usable tool and a studio staple for a reason. So many polar patterns, pad, dual diaphragm, etc… piano, drum overheads, mid side, blumline, vocals…. Etc. huge value.

      @@RobArnoldWorld A few ideas like testing out the microphones with lets say Mark singing into them ? Test them out to see how far away you can stand when your playing your guitar to see if they will still be able to pickup the same sound ? Place them a different room/rooms ?

    @CarlosDropD 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    Hey Rob, congrats on those mics… just one advise, don’t connect/disconnect the mic with phantom power on cause you can blow it, with the cost of those you better take the precautions…
    The roll off will help you if you want to control proximity effect or have rumble on your studio, if you don’t, then better leave it off.

    You ever tried the mics from Lewitt? I've heard they're great as well, especially the LCT440.

    These microphones are among my favourites for guitar cabs, sadly out of my price range. They play really nicely with Celestion V30 and Eminence Legend.

    The Samson C01 sounds really good for a $50 mic

      I agree! After getting into the edit for this vid, and hearing the Samson in this scenario, I was more impressed by it than I thought I'd be!

  • @calitheguitarist
    @calitheguitarist 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    To my amateur ears, the AKG seem to be more sensitive and precise. The Samson sound just fine but maybe slightly “grainy” but only noticeable after hearing the clarity of the AKG.

    But you had the portable mic ON while you were testing the other ones. Didn't that affect or like contribute to how they sounded?

    • @RobArnoldWorld
      @RobArnoldWorld  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I isolated the individual microphones in post. So that means yes they were recording simultaneously, but I was able to mute individual signals while editing the video.
