Mas Acoustics presents a documentary film that takes us directly into the heart of Brauner Microphones. The Art of Microphones is a journey in which we discover the artistic essence that emanates from the realization of the (possibly) best recording microphones in the world.
This film interlaces production process sequences with the answers that Dirk Brauner offers to some of our eternal questions. Is it worth using a tube preamp with a tube microphone?, What Brauner differs from its competitors? ...
The manufacturing process of high-quality microphones is a mixture of high precision machines with very experienced hands. The process begins with a simple metal tube which, according to Dirk, "hides several microphones; all they need to do is just take them out".

Mas Acoustics presenta un documental que nos lleva directamente al corazón de Brauner Microphones. The Art of Microphones es un viaje en el que descubrimos la esencia artística que emana de la realización de los (posiblemente) mejores micrófonos de grabación del mundo.
Entrelazamos secuencias del proceso productivo con las respuestas que el propio Dirk Brauner ofrece a algunas de nuestras eternas preguntas. ¿Vale la pena utilizar un previo a válvulas con un micrófono también a válvulas?, ¿En qué se diferencia Brauner de sus competidores?...
El proceso de fabricación de micrófonos de alta calidad mezcla el uso de máquinas de gran precisión con manos realmente experimentadas. El inicio de este proceso nos enseña un simple tubo que, según Dirk, esconde varios micrófonos, todo lo que hay que hacer es simplemente sacarlos de él.
El objetico de este documental pasa por acercar el complejo y artístico proceso de fabricación de esta línea de micrófonos a todo el mundo. Mantenemos las respuestas de Dirk Brauner en inglés pero todas ellas llevan sus correspondientes subtítulos para que puedan ser entendidas en los países de habla hispana.
Esperamos que os guste. the art of Microphones es un reportaje de 30 minutos para el que el propio Peter Gabriel nos ha permitido añadir una de sus más bonitas canciones, "Mercy Street"

Inspirational. That's what it is to watch people dedicated to quality and longevity of a product, instead of cost or market share. I read a short article on the last page of Mix this month (August 2017) on the value of quality, and it could easily have been describing Mr. Brauner's standards here. There is a place for "just as good as" equipment, and there is a place for top notch gear. Hat's off to those who make the gear we aspire to own and create with, who believe that last 10% is worth chasing.

Absolutely! 100% agree with you. Thank you so much!

Craftsmanship...pure craftswomanship at it's finest (they have highly skilled Ladies working to create these timeless masterpieces as well). It makes you appreciate it more when you finally write that check, sign it and order one of these gems you can pass on to your heirs in your estate! Wow!!

@MasacousticsBarcelona 2 года назад

Dirk Brauner is one of the finest people I have ever met. He genuinely loves microphones and I believe no one makes microphones any better than his. I have several Brauner mics and love them. Solid state or vacuum tube, Brauner mics are first rate.

@richardbailey511 2 года назад

I recently contacted him via email. Waiting for a response. Hes a pure genius!!!

I've bought some years ago a Brauner Phantom AE (anniversary edition) which is solid state and am very happy with it. The build quality is great. And I had the chance of recording an album for my friend in a studio where they had Brauner VM1, or was it VMX. I forgot. That thing sounded amazing! Great work mr. Dirk!

Well..........I don't know if I will ever be able to buy a Brauner mic but....Listening to this man has been very inspirational and has helped me persevere in my own quest for better recordings. Thanks!

Un aporte increíble. Micros de calidad, para resultados de calidad...

@davidkennerly 9 лет назад

Fantastic overview of your design philosophy and your facility and processes. One thing, we didn't get to HEAR the microphone, although possibly the Brazilian music was mic'ed with your microphone. A few more examples would be wonderful.

@lsd25records 11 лет назад

THAT was great documentary. i will definitely get equipment like this if life ever gives me that opportunity...

@abrahamsonido 11 лет назад

¡Muchas gracias por el aporte! ¡Ojalá hubiera muchos videos así!

@omnesilere 9 лет назад

I am impressed if Peter Gabriel gave any sort of blessing, but this is some wonderful world class manufacturing of it's own.

@robertogonzalezbernal6688 11 лет назад

Excelente video, un gran reportaje que merece la pena verlo, recomendado.

@abrahamolguin5759 7 лет назад

cada cierto tiempo vuelvo a ver este documental... es genial!!

@MasacousticsBarcelona 7 лет назад

Muchas gracias por tu comentario, Abraham! La pasión que Dirk poner en su trabajo tiene como resultado unos micrófonos increíbles.

This is one of the best lecture/QnA about the myths of tube mics etc. my friend has this chinese ‘tube mic’ that he expects me to like (its crap). This guy rules tho

@mettaman7053 Год назад

After watching this documentary I decided to pull the trigger on a used VM1. I have not received it yet but I am looking forward to seeing and using it. Apparently it was serviced and sat in its box after having new capsule so I’m hoping it’s going to give me years of use. Loved the detail that goes into manufacturing these microphones and I feel confident on my used purchase as I trust what I’ve seen in this video. Great watch and very educational. Thanks

@mettaman7053 8 месяцев назад

Just an update on me buying a used VM1 Microphone, Best thing I ever did hands down💪

@BrianMackey2010 4 года назад

Wow so cool I love this stuff, and I just learned so much... thank you

increible!

@SoundreplayStudio 11 лет назад

Thank you for this Brauner product video! I will definitely have a look at the Brauner product range, contact my local dealer in Belgium and hopefully welcome a new Brauner tube microphone among my collection. Thanks again. Dirk

Great Microphones made Expertly from people with passion for excellence

@darrenelliottfrancis 6 лет назад

I recently bought a new VM1 that became faulty in transit. I have to say the level of service I received from my U.K. supplier (Red Dog) and especially Brauner, was exceptional. Dirk dealt with the issue personally, and was in contact with me throughout - exceptionally professional. The mic I've ended up with is superb, like a super high quality camera lens. If you have a good EQ you can manipulate this sound to be exactly what you want it to be, there are never nasty surprises of gritty artefacts when you lift a frequency band. I've also worked with the VMX - that's a fire-breathing mic! I did an experiment to see if I could EQ the VMX to impersonate my old U67 - bingo, all the necessary information and warmth was there, cut some highs, little 1k push and you could hardly tell them apart! Then had to reverse it all as the VMX with no EQ sounds a lot better than the 67 with no EQ straight off!

Does anyone know which microphone preamp is used to test the microphones at the last stage of manufacturing from Dirk?

one day i will earn one.

@t.p.ggaming3884 6 лет назад

This might just be my ignorant opinion but, Talking about hearing a difference yeah, It would be a good difference, But is it four to five thousand dollars worth of difference?, It's the same as Neumann

@t.p.ggaming3884 6 лет назад

You're not even using prestigious in the right context, Just stop talking, You're making yourself look even more like a fool with every sentence you type

@t.p.ggaming3884 6 лет назад

Well know i definitely know that you're trolling, I guess we needn't reply any more since we know what you're about, Flat earth has no relevance to what we're saying but you do you man

@t.p.ggaming3884 6 лет назад

Like i said you do you man, I'm not going to see the video, The other gentleman isn't going to, So you know, I don't care all that much

@waedi73 3 года назад

Great mics but only useful in good rooms with good acoustic. If the room is boomy or has a hall reverb then you will get a shock ! These mics do not forgive ! They take everything !

@MasacousticsBarcelona 3 года назад

Yes, we agree. Thank you Walter!
