Worlds Renowned Vintage Microphone expert Klaus Heyne, talks about why Vintage Micrphones are better at capturing the human voice than modern versions.
@@kellywendlandt3940 Thank you. As someone who likes DIY microphones. Klaus Heyne is a godlike being, and he points out in great depth that a microphone is not just a tool for recording sound but a tool with emotions. I never understood why the old microphones couldn't be made anymore. When he talked about the output transformer, I thought I suddenly understood. The person who really knows how to make transformers is gone. Thanks again.
Great Interview, thankx ! This is the first time I hear him talking, I know him from reading many microphone related chats. I am lucky to have an original Neumann M249 in my cupboard which I will propably keep until the end. I remember the days when original U47's could be found on ebay every second week in the price range between 3000 and 5000 Euro. I should have take a loan and buy them all, too late now ;-) ....
I am in the same boat @megaSoundscapes! I have a vintage u67 from Klaus but I would really like a u47, M49 et al. Now I would need to sell my house to get those mics! Klaus is a treasure to the music world and I feel very fortunate to talk with him and share it. Thank you for the comment.
Thanks Derek-I agree. It is always an honor to talk with Klaus. He's a fountain of knowledge, and his passion, expertise and professionalism are inspiring.
holy shit 9 subscribers this is the bottom of the microphone rabbit hole congrats to anyone who made it yall musta spent some TIME with a capital t looking at gear. i got here cuz bro modded jacob colliers mic i dont understand how this podcast has so little subscribers with so much content i post a little thing farting around on main and i get 100, this guy literal top tier experts what am i missing here somethings not clicking
Wayne, it's pretty crazy the youtube algorythms have not gotten this to more people. It got 5500 watches on linked-in the first 2 weeks, and that group of people are mostly business-people. I must need to work on my controversial titles or hashtags: ). Something like "Klaus Heyne tells all about Pdiddy parties and how microphones were used." (joking of course).
From what I can tell the only available versions currently for sale are in german. Not to say you can't find one if you look hard enough. I just did a quick google search and it looks like the book is hard to come by. If I happen to talk with Klaus I'll ask him if he knows where people can get it and then post it.
