being good given that emg81, we hear everywhere in the world of metal, and the 3 / 4 of the groups I listen to use this microphone, I say no need to look any further!
good not need to do a drawing, the emg 81 is a legend, the word that everyone know, active micro, ultra prcis, cold, ...
people complain that it is cold, so what? I like the fact its cold, if I want a warm sound I take a strat ac a simple micro worse I play the blues! lol
I have this on a micro and a ibanez jackson JS30RR RG, mounted in 11-70, drop B, drop C, drop some A, A #.
obviously good, it sounds metal, it sounds cold. I play mostly metalcore (August Burns Red, Parkway Drive, As I Lay Dying ...), which is a good mix of bold and aggressive riffs, rhythmic palm mute ultra prcis, net shots, and melodies- Solo ultra precise, short a good mix of style metal.
sound level between the ibanez and jackson, the sound changes slightly, a little fat on the ibanez I would say, but the ear you can hear it a lot.
in rhythm: for me it's the highlight of the microphone, it is pure folly. Palm Mute us chills at each shot, accuracy in fast and rhythmic techniques are waiting for you is a pearl.
Leading in, solo: the 81 sounds tjs as accurate, whistle out the harmonics and sound nothing like bcp, is the sustain, the tapping is a real rgal.
for me this microphone is a microphone perfect for this kind of music, but would go very well for other kinds of metal, but I think it is really made for this mixture aggressive rhythm and solos!
I do not regret at all the assets put on my guitars, for that matter is not for nothing that I rebuilt for ibanez.
if I play on a Hugh and Kettner, so as said before, the guitar, the amp bcp can change things, but for me the Ibanez RG and Jackson are perfect for the V metal (24 boxes and more for solos ^ ^) so I think it sounds perfectly fine.
after ben is clear that people like this sound emg, others not, but for me there is no better, and I'm not ready to change these pickups
