My Mic Locker - Neumann, Circle Audio, Electro-Voice, Beyerdynamic, Blue - Why I Have These Mics! 

Looks like the shootout was taken down. Will change the link if a new one goes up. My apologies.

The Circle Audio one sounds extremely enticing :O

Excellent overview and explanations! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💯

Interesting, informative and enjoyable in equal measure. Thank you.

Great stuff....as usual!!!

Roswell delphos 2 a very underrated mic imo, i pair it with a focusrite isa one going into antelope discrete 4 for rap vocals and get very smooth, no harshness and full sounding!

That audio technica is the winner on your voice, that mid range pinch takes away some of the nasal tonality. I imagine that’s what you sound like in the room. Great vid btw, big up

I like the new EV ND series mics. I use the M88 for close-in, low-pitched vocals. Mega proximity. A rather stunning sound.

Dope vid!!!

I only have a Neumann tlm103 Anniversary edition & a Blue BlueBerry, with a Manley Labs Core & a Rupert Neve Designs Newton I only Rap & sing tho… but I love them a lot

thank you for this man and perfect timing!! i’m in the market for a 251 style mic and the circle audio looks dope, have you tried the telefunken tf51??

thanks for sharing

I have the telefunken TF51. I wonder how this compares to the Evo 251. The TF51 costs more, if the evo sounds better I would sell it. Edit:I see you linked a video comparison thanks!

Great video as always Matt! About saying that no mic locker is complete whithout the km 184 s... We have a pair of shure sm 81 for sdc duties.. would you think the 184s will still have a place, or will be redundant?? What could they bring to the table that is different/complementary?? Thanks a lot for this.!

You don't have to tell me to think of Stevie, I usually am already. I've only seen one podcast that uses those E.V. mics. Everybody else pretty much uses Shure SM-7. Why do you think that is? Just a trend? I thought one of those boxes was for a Warm Audio mic. I have one that looks just like it that I keep my AT-4040 in. I sing the theme song to the Jefferson's when I put it in there..."Well, we movin' on up!" I have a small diaphragm mic that I use sometimes on snare and hats and I noticed what you mentioned about the rejection of the fastest transient stuff. It actually just stops recording and blanks out for a moment then starts again. Is there any trick to getting around that drawback of the mic or do I have to just back it off or use a different mic?

I can’t wait anymore I need the circle audio mic. Do you have any mic suggestions for background vocals?

circle audio 251 sounds amaizing ..What preamp are you running it with ?

Have you tested the UA Sphere micrphone as compared to the Slate Digital one you have there?

circle audio 251 vs telefunken video doesn t open When i click on it says the video is private Will you make it public ?

V67 sounds the best on Your voice imo
