Vanguard Audio Labs is rolling out their second generation of microphones and kicks things off with the stereo V44s Gen2. We'll record a whole song with just this mic and get an idea of all the versatile stereo options as well as some unique mono applications through utilizing both capsules.

Love what you're doing!

Sorry everyone! RU-vid glitched out and messed up the premiere, removing the live chat... Please post any questions down here!

Awesome review! Thanks for providing the session files.

Blown away by the sonic clarity of the final song. Glad I stuck with the entire video. My old Fostex speakers were very happy. :o)

sounds awesome, Matt!

Great review, and wow that white guitar sounds so good!

Interesting review that I became curious about seeing Josh Turner Guitar use it a bit. I became Vanguard Audio Labs V44S gen II mic curious, but I have to remark that I really enjoyed your song. It was very much my cup of tea. It is also inspiring to see more and more kids become M.I. (multi-instrumentalists). In my opinion, it is a much more natural state to be, and it also creates less reliance on others allowing one to create decent demos faster.

One of the best reviews I've seen on RU-vid, proper demonstrations and decent musicianship. The resulting track sounded fantastic.

@MillSounds 2 года назад

Thanks, glad you liked it!

Excellent work, brother. The most impressive part was how you managed to play all those instruments while simultaneously moving those two faders up and down. Not only is this a stereo mic review, but also a you can perform audio-related functions in stereo as an engineer and musician. :)

hey everyone! So something went wrong with the premier, please post your questions here

@bensongavin 2 года назад

Hey Derek and Matt! Joe here. So, for MS recording with the V44s... if I have an interface that has only two XLR inputs, can I just take the top and bottom capsule outputs from the splitter box to two separate tracks in my DAW and then copy and paste whichever track is the side mic to a third track and reverse the phase on the third track in the DAW? The same way I would normally do it with a center mic and a figure 8 side mic?

@juddlevison9653 2 года назад

Absolutely, that's what's normally done, as you said. The splitter box just gives you that third phase-reversed output as an option if you have the input channels.

@MillSounds 2 года назад

That's usually how I do it if I don't want to burn a channel during tracking. Sometimes when you're doing location work and have enough channels to spare, it's nice to hear the M/S signal decoded in real time to help with placement. You have choices here, which is the nice part!

@derek-vanguardaudiolabs9779 2 года назад

that's the general way to do it. The third output is most useful, I think, for real-time zero-latency monitoring in M/S.

@theblowupdollsmusic 2 года назад

Seriously, the best microphone review I have ever seen. Thank you for taking the time to do this.

@DaneBrammage 2 года назад

I just saw this mic at NAMM 22 but it would have been impossible to get a demo like this. Thanks @MillSounds! The mic sounds really good and the blending gives you so much versatility and lots of options.

@MillSounds 2 года назад

Glad you found it helpful, they’re great mics!

@DaneBrammage 2 года назад

@@MillSounds Don't have a recording studio anymore but this would be a really great "Swiss Army" kind of mic.

@MillSounds 2 года назад

@@DaneBrammage Fos sure, SO many cool things you can do with it.

@Devinop Год назад

Hello. Your opinion - does it make sense to use V44 to record vocals, or is it better to use V4?

@MillSounds Год назад

There's no difference between using a mono V4 or just one channel of the V44s, they're exactly the same. As you saw in the video, you can do some unique things utilizing both channels on a source. I guess it just depends on how often you need to record in stereo. If you need a stereo mic, it's an amazing deal and can be used as a single microphone quite easily!

@Devinop Год назад

@@MillSounds What do you think about Vanguard V4 gen 2?

@MillSounds Год назад

@@Devinop Absolutely love it, best stereo mic you can buy!

@Devinop Год назад

@@MillSounds Stereo? V4 gen 2. It's mono mic, second generation of V4.

@MillSounds Год назад

@@Devinop Haha, sorry I misread! I’ve got a pair of V4’s and the stereo V4, so I obviously like them. Amazing on acoustic instruments, nice and warm/natural.
