I have one M930 and use it for everything possible, acoustic guitars, percussions, and mainly vocals. I do a lot of voice over and when I send it to a new studio that I never worked before always send with a question "is everything ok with the sound?" and the answer is always "AWSOME!!" It's basically a U47 with an optical voltage compressor since it is the same project since WW2.
This was almost one of my first good mics when I started out back in the day. When I tried to buy one, the sales dude was hell bent on wanting me to get a 414 and I ended up not buying it...or the 414. I did end up getting a UM92.1 a year or so later. Gefell's just have something special about them. Every time I put it up, it gets raved about. It just does a thing.
Hey I love this channel and your work. Two quick questions for you 1. Is there a significant difference from the UM70 and the UMT 70? 2. How would you compare it to the Mojave MA300? Thanks again for everything
I needed a workhorse mic and almost settled for a austrian audio but the M93/M70 kept popping up as "extremely natural and precise mics"... and they weren't lying : I put a M93 (fixed cardioid version of the M70) in front of my mandolin and my baritone guitare without thinking too much about the placement and when I listened back I had one of the smallest difference between room and playback I've ever experienced. They aren't cheap... but the price isn't crazy either. Except the mount. DO NOT buy the MG mount... it's like 300€ it's insane
This has been neat. Always telling artists to try their voice on EVERY mic for this reason. Could you post a link to the microphone gurus, pretty please with a cherry on top?
m7 and k47 style capsules rule vocals, for certain. Ray Charles, Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, everything magnanimous, hahah ! But hey man, I just released my latest project and would greatly appreciate it if you can blare it on those Focals via a 15". Truly orginal music for the adult mind who has lived, loved and learned. Official audio can be found on my channel, and the project can be found on all major platforms under "Simonez Dega - The Splat Voyage" One Love, regardless of your decision & thanks for these videos ! Peace !
I have an m930. I had two but I sold one. One of my favorite mics ever. Sounds amazing on so many things! It's hard to beat on acoustic guitar. I'd like to track down one of the 70 series mics to try out the m7, preferably the one with the transformer.
The whole gefell system is amazing, you can mount the M70 capsule on that same mic body (mv692) and have a cardioid nickel capsule that sounds absolutely magic on anything close mic'd (if the capsule is in good shape) and you could mount the UM70 capsule on a M582 body wich is the tube version of that mv691/mv692 mic body. Then you essentially get another kind of u47 flavor cause the UM70 has the same original M7 capsule as in early U47 mics, made in the same factory on the sale tools. The headbaslet design of the UM70 changes the frequency response to that of a U47 and makes it actually almost ruler flat from 20 to 20k. I many of all these different capsules and mic bodies/electronics (tube and transistor) from gefell and they are my workhorses for everything
I have several Gefell mics. I always thought the M7 capsule was overblown by internet gurus, but when I finally got a real one I was blown away. It's hard to explain just how great they are.
There was but they got copyrighted and my only move was to cut it. Thing is it was an independent artists unreleased music. Not sure why a label would be striking it
@@RecordingStudioLoseryeah thats weird. I know someone who had their own work based on Tchaikovsky pulled by a label. Completely their own work other than the notes Tchaikovsky wrote.
I got an opportunity to A/B one of these mics years ago at Sam Ash in NYC and I can remember how SILKY this mic sounded! I've never heard another mic that sounded like that one since! Thanks for reminding me about it! Now I gotta find one!
