Winter NAMM 2012 News
The company owner is very friendly, communicative and passionate about his work which is clear in the way he conducts himself and his product. An unexpected bonus was that because the amp is angled for optimum sound it completely removes the ability for people to use your expensive tube amp as a drink holder/table. ...
I've been using the MXL PF for about four or five years and have come to rely on it when recording vocals. No matter what kind of microphone you are using, a pop filer like this one is must have. While other pop filters do the job the same, the PS-6 is well built and won't give you any trouble while you are trying to place it and set it up. Some...
The Samson Technologies PS01 is really a must have for any studio. Of course every studio needs a pro screen, and if you're a professional studio it's going to be worth it to spend a few extra bucks on something like the Stedman. I haven't tested this out against a nylon/fabric pop screen, but this does seem to do a great job of removing sibilan...
My only grips with this pop filter is the fabric rips over time. i've had to replace the fabric with leggings over 20 times in the last 11 years. The fabric holds in saliva as well as bacteria. If your artist has bad breath you will smell it on the pop filter. They are difficult to wash but they work so well. Another thing is you wouldn't want t...
I love this popfilter because 1. It gets the job done 2. It's inexpensive 3. It's washable! Just the fact the filter is washable makes it worth purchasing. If you've ever done recording and know that the fabric pop filters can start to smell bad over time. It holds onto your clients oral bacteria and ...
The Stedman Proscreen 100 is really a must have for any studio. Of course every studio needs a pro screen, and if you're a professional studio it's going to be worth it to spend a few extra bucks on something like the Stedman. I haven't tested this out against a nylon/fabric pop screen, but this does seem to do a great job of removing sibilanc...
Finally, I had a ribbon placed in front of it, and was told to blow as hard as I can. Then, the ribbon was put in front of a VERY loud guitar cabinet. All of a sudden, a Coles had captured the sound of a guitar cabinet. So. Yes. Even if you have to pay a relatively nutty amount of money for it, this seems to make your microphones pretty invincib...
All in all, despite the fact that the On-Stage Stands SMS7650 is the cheapest in its class, it is still in its class, meaning that it will without fail hold up even your heaviest microphones well. I wouldn't exactly call it road worthy, however, so I would never pack it anywhere, but if it's sitting in your studio, it will work fine. <br ...
It is actually a fairly stable microphone stand if you've never used anything else. Once you get into the more expensive stands like the DR Pro's and Tama's, you'll never want to go back. But with adjustment and compromise, the On-Stage Stands 7701B or 7701C provides a very affordable alternative for mounting your microphones.
And don't even think about turning it upside down. I've had many, many, many close calls with my precious AT4033 because of the rather badly-thought out design of the AT8441. Do yourself a favor and only use this shockmount if you have no other option. I'd recommend buying a separate clamp shockmount entirely. It isolates well, bu...
