two of 3 00:00:05,200 --> 00:00:08,320 the ultimate u87 shootout and what we're 4 00:00:08,320 --> 00:00:11,040 gonna do today is we're gonna take the 5 00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:13,840 examples that were in part one and we're 6 00:00:13,840 --> 00:00:16,320 gonna add two more examples i'm gonna do 7 00:00:16,320 --> 00:00:18,960 an acoustic and vocal of a short clip of 8 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:21,600 a song called ghost of jackson square by 9 00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:23,039 edwin mccain 10 00:00:23,039 --> 00:00:25,359 and then acoustic and vocal of a song 11 00:00:25,359 --> 00:00:27,039 called very good advice which is 12 00:00:27,039 --> 00:00:30,400 actually from alice in wonderland uh but 13 00:00:30,400 --> 00:00:32,000 i've i've always liked the lyrics to 14 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,440 that song there's a really talented 15 00:00:33,440 --> 00:00:35,360 artist named tanner patrick they did a 16 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:37,280 super cool version of that it's like 17 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:39,520 completely reworked the original 18 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,079 and so after i heard his version uh 19 00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:43,760 the version that i'm doing here is 20 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:46,399 definitely heavily influenced by him so 21 00:00:46,399 --> 00:00:49,120 i did everything i could to 22 00:00:49,120 --> 00:00:52,000 make sure that this is a fair shootout 23 00:00:52,000 --> 00:00:53,760 because i don't want to 24 00:00:53,760 --> 00:00:55,760 hurt a manufacturer 25 00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:56,800 by 26 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:58,559 not giving a good representation of 27 00:00:58,559 --> 00:01:00,399 their microphone you know that's i think 28 00:01:00,399 --> 00:01:01,120 as 29 00:01:01,120 --> 00:01:02,960 youtube reviewers we really need to be 30 00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:06,799 careful not to do that so what i did was 31 00:01:06,799 --> 00:01:07,920 for 32 00:01:07,920 --> 00:01:10,000 hallelujah and for ghost of jackson 33 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:11,119 square 34 00:01:11,119 --> 00:01:13,920 i set the mics up in sort of like a star 35 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:16,240 pattern to where i could sing in the 36 00:01:16,240 --> 00:01:18,960 space between but i was hitting all the 37 00:01:18,960 --> 00:01:21,680 capsules as evenly as i could but you 38 00:01:21,680 --> 00:01:23,439 know that kind of shootout does have its 39 00:01:23,439 --> 00:01:24,720 shortcomings 40 00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:27,439 and the way that i like to do shootouts 41 00:01:27,439 --> 00:01:29,360 personally when i'm tracking someone and 42 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,759 i'm deciding which mic to use on them 43 00:01:31,759 --> 00:01:33,759 is to get them to sing through each mic 44 00:01:33,759 --> 00:01:36,000 individually and the reason for doing 45 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,720 that is because i like to know how that 46 00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,880 person feels when they sink through the 47 00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:43,920 mic how they interact with the mic 48 00:01:43,920 --> 00:01:46,560 if i have two mics set up one sounds a 49 00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,799 little bit better in the control room 50 00:01:48,799 --> 00:01:50,720 but the artist says hey i feel a lot 51 00:01:50,720 --> 00:01:52,320 more comfortable singing through this 52 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:53,920 other mic 53 00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:56,240 almost always go with the one that they 54 00:01:56,240 --> 00:01:57,680 feel the most comfortable singing 55 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,520 through because 56 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:03,520 you can eq and compress and do things to 57 00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:06,079 match the tone from one mic to another 58 00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:09,039 fairly well but what you can't do is 59 00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:11,599 insert some kind of emotion or feeling 60 00:02:11,599 --> 00:02:13,599 that the artist wasn't able to emote 61 00:02:13,599 --> 00:02:16,800 because the microphone didn't give them 62 00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:18,959 the flexibility to do so 63 00:02:18,959 --> 00:02:22,160 so i did both ways on here and i will 64 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:23,680 let you know right ahead of those 65 00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:26,080 examples what's going on where 66 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:27,920 so that you know what you're hearing but 67 00:02:27,920 --> 00:02:29,680 i thought by doing it that way we could 68 00:02:29,680 --> 00:02:32,239 cover all the bases and maybe address 69 00:02:32,239 --> 00:02:34,319 some of the shortcomings where other mic 70 00:02:34,319 --> 00:02:36,480 shootouts may have fallen short in all 71 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,239 the shootouts there's no 72 00:02:38,239 --> 00:02:41,599 high pass filter or pad engaged 73 00:02:41,599 --> 00:02:44,400 the worm has it serrano the neumanns 74 00:02:44,400 --> 00:02:46,000 have it but the bee's knees does not 75 00:02:46,000 --> 00:02:48,879 have that option so i just left that out 76 00:02:48,879 --> 00:02:51,280 of all of them and if there's any 77 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:52,879 high-pass filter 78 00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:54,640 or anything going on it was done with 79 00:02:54,640 --> 00:02:57,120 the plug-in after it was tracked and 80 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:59,200 where that's done i will let you know 81 00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:01,360 one thing i did want to mention the kind 82 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,560 of glaring emission from this shootout 83 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:07,760 is the stam audio 87 84 00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,920 and the only reason i excluded that one 85 00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:12,640 is because i reached out to joshua 86 00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:14,000 at the beginning of this and told him 87 00:03:14,000 --> 00:03:15,680 what i was doing and he let me know that 88 00:03:15,680 --> 00:03:18,159 he's working on a mark iv version of 89 00:03:18,159 --> 00:03:20,319 that mic and so i didn't want to include 90 00:03:20,319 --> 00:03:22,879 one that is going to soon be replaced 91 00:03:22,879 --> 00:03:25,040 but what i'll do is stay in touch with 92 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:25,920 him 93 00:03:25,920 --> 00:03:29,040 get that new mic when it comes out and 94 00:03:29,040 --> 00:03:31,040 maybe try to do these same songs or 95 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:33,760 somehow incorporated into this shootout 96 00:03:33,760 --> 00:03:36,080 at that point and see how it stacks up 97 00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,239 but that's the only reason why the stam 98 00:03:38,239 --> 00:03:41,200 wasn't included for all examples if i 99 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:44,959 used the antelope mp32 i used that on 100 00:03:44,959 --> 00:03:46,879 all the rest of them if i use the shadow 101 00:03:46,879 --> 00:03:49,280 hills on the iron setting i kept it on 102 00:03:49,280 --> 00:03:51,599 the iron setting i will notate in the 103 00:03:51,599 --> 00:03:54,080 examples what the chain was but just 104 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:56,480 know for the examples where i sing into 105 00:03:56,480 --> 00:03:58,000 all mics at once 106 00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:00,319 i use the same kind of cable the same 107 00:04:00,319 --> 00:04:01,680 length of cable 108 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:04,080 the same preamp and the same converter 109 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:06,239 so i really did everything i could to 110 00:04:06,239 --> 00:04:08,879 give every mic its best chance to be on 111 00:04:08,879 --> 00:04:10,319 equal footing 112 00:04:10,319 --> 00:04:12,239 so if you've somehow landed here before 113 00:04:12,239 --> 00:04:14,080 you watched part one i'd really 114 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:16,000 encourage you to pause 115 00:04:16,000 --> 00:04:17,440 and i'm gonna put the link up here 116 00:04:17,440 --> 00:04:19,680 somewhere and say 117 00:04:19,680 --> 00:04:22,000 go check out the blind version first 118 00:04:22,000 --> 00:04:23,600 because i think it's really important to 119 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,320 put aside our biases of what a neumann 120 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,199 is or vintage or whatever other buzzword 121 00:04:29,199 --> 00:04:31,040 you want to throw out there and i really 122 00:04:31,040 --> 00:04:32,800 want you to judge these microphones on 123 00:04:32,800 --> 00:04:34,560 their sonics alone 124 00:04:34,560 --> 00:04:36,560 so if you haven't watched part one 125 00:04:36,560 --> 00:04:38,479 please go do that really quickly and 126 00:04:38,479 --> 00:04:40,400 then it's it's short anyway check that 127 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:42,560 one out then head back over here for the 128 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,199 reveal if you did watch part one i'm 129 00:04:45,199 --> 00:04:47,759 excited to build on that first of all to 130 00:04:47,759 --> 00:04:49,759 tell you which microphones were which 131 00:04:49,759 --> 00:04:51,360 we're going to do the reveal here right 132 00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:53,680 away so as i get into the examples 133 00:04:53,680 --> 00:04:54,960 they're going to be in the same order 134 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:57,680 that they were in video one it's just in 135 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:00,240 parentheses i'm gonna tell what the mic 136 00:05:00,240 --> 00:05:01,440 actually is 137 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:04,320 and not just mic a b etc 138 00:05:04,320 --> 00:05:06,000 all right so let's hear all of these 139 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,800 audio examples we're gonna just roll 140 00:05:08,800 --> 00:05:10,479 through them i will put 141 00:05:10,479 --> 00:05:12,720 chapter markers so you can jump back and 142 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:14,880 forth and compare however you want to 143 00:05:14,880 --> 00:05:16,960 and then i'll hop on again at the end 144 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:18,560 and have some closing thoughts all right 145 00:05:18,560 --> 00:05:44,629 guys let's hear the rest of the shootout 146 00:05:44,639 --> 00:05:45,850 hallelujah 147 00:05:45,850 --> 00:05:52,160 [Music] 148 00:05:52,160 --> 00:05:53,560 hallelujah 149 00:05:53,560 --> 00:06:25,749 [Music] 150

very good advice 213 00:13:28,880 --> 00:13:32,839 but i'm very seldom following 214 00:13:32,839 --> 00:13:40,150 that explains trouble my ways 215 00:13:40,160 --> 00:13:42,000 be patience 216 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,199 is very good advice but the way that 217 00:13:45,199 --> 00:13:49,560 makes me curious 218 00:13:49,570 --> 00:13:58,949 [Music] 219 00:13:58,959 --> 00:14:02,160 all right guys that is the end of the 87 220 00:14:02,160 --> 00:14:04,000 shootout i hope you enjoyed the reveal i 221 00:14:04,000 --> 00:14:06,240 hope you got most of them right and i 222 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:08,560 try not to influence you too much but i 223 00:14:08,560 --> 00:14:10,880 i did want to say with this 224 00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:12,880 nine times out of ten when i compare a 225 00:14:12,880 --> 00:14:14,560 vintage piece of gear 226 00:14:14,560 --> 00:14:17,120 to a clone i've gone with the vintage 227 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:18,800 piece i do want to get a little bit more 228 00:14:18,800 --> 00:14:21,920 opinionated here than i normally do 229 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,120 and really my motivation is to try to 230 00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:26,880 save you money and to try to help you 231 00:14:26,880 --> 00:14:28,000 because 232 00:14:28,000 --> 00:14:30,000 i've been really seriously recording 233 00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:32,399 since 1994. 234 00:14:32,399 --> 00:14:34,560 and i've gone through a ton of mics and 235 00:14:34,560 --> 00:14:36,240 a ton of gear and i've gotten caught up 236 00:14:36,240 --> 00:14:38,160 in the hype more times than i would like 237 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:39,519 to admit 238 00:14:39,519 --> 00:14:42,160 and at this point i have to say after 239 00:14:42,160 --> 00:14:44,560 doing going through this shootout 240 00:14:44,560 --> 00:14:47,760 that i think the lust for a vintage 87 241 00:14:47,760 --> 00:14:49,279 is probably something we should put 242 00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:50,399 aside 243 00:14:50,399 --> 00:14:52,240 no offense if you own one i'm not trying 244 00:14:52,240 --> 00:14:53,760 to drive the price down although the 245 00:14:53,760 --> 00:14:56,160 price along with nearly everything else 246 00:14:56,160 --> 00:14:57,600 in the last year has gone through the 247 00:14:57,600 --> 00:14:58,720 roof 248 00:14:58,720 --> 00:15:01,199 but i just can't see paying 249 00:15:01,199 --> 00:15:04,800 for 4 500 5 000 250 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,120 for a vintage 87 251 00:15:07,120 --> 00:15:08,160 when 252 00:15:08,160 --> 00:15:10,959 man serrano warm bee's knees are making 253 00:15:10,959 --> 00:15:13,440 killer mics they're all different enough 254 00:15:13,440 --> 00:15:15,120 to where i might actually end up with a 255 00:15:15,120 --> 00:15:18,240 pair of all three of those and the 87 ai 256 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:20,720 is a good mic it you know 257 00:15:20,720 --> 00:15:23,040 for what it is but again it 258 00:15:23,040 --> 00:15:24,959 price range there's just no comparison i 259 00:15:24,959 --> 00:15:27,199 mean you could literally buy 260 00:15:27,199 --> 00:15:29,600 five or six of 261 00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:31,519 the warm or the serrano for the price 262 00:15:31,519 --> 00:15:33,519 that you're going to pay for an ai and 263 00:15:33,519 --> 00:15:34,560 then 264 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:36,240 10 of them for what you're going to pay 265 00:15:36,240 --> 00:15:37,120 for 266 00:15:37,120 --> 00:15:38,959 a vintage 87. 267 00:15:38,959 --> 00:15:42,079 so like i said most times i'd have gone 268 00:15:42,079 --> 00:15:43,759 with vintage gear when i had to make the 269 00:15:43,759 --> 00:15:44,959 choice 270 00:15:44,959 --> 00:15:45,759 but 271 00:15:45,759 --> 00:15:47,440 i got to tell you on this one i think 272 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,120 it's time to just put this aside i mean 273 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:50,800 if you come across a great price of the 274 00:15:50,800 --> 00:15:52,160 87 275 00:15:52,160 --> 00:15:54,720 have at it if you don't 276 00:15:54,720 --> 00:15:56,560 get one of these more affordable options 277 00:15:56,560 --> 00:15:59,199 and move on to another area that will be 278 00:15:59,199 --> 00:16:01,600 more beneficial for your studio 279 00:16:01,600 --> 00:16:04,160 so anyway if you disagree tell me in the 280 00:16:04,160 --> 00:16:06,160 comments i want you to ultimately decide 281 00:16:06,160 --> 00:16:09,440 what is best for you but i do feel 282 00:16:09,440 --> 00:16:11,839 really strongly about going into debt 283 00:16:11,839 --> 00:16:14,079 for recording especially in the day and 284 00:16:14,079 --> 00:16:15,680 age that we live in 285 00:16:15,680 --> 00:16:17,920 we're streaming services the the 286 00:16:17,920 --> 00:16:20,240 royalties and all are so much 287 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,399 less than what they used to be i'd 288 00:16:22,399 --> 00:16:24,399 really hate to see somebody 289 00:16:24,399 --> 00:16:27,920 fork out five grand on a vintage 87 290 00:16:27,920 --> 00:16:29,120 when they could take that money and 291 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,839 spread it around and get so much more 292 00:16:31,839 --> 00:16:33,040 for it 293 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,759 so anyway i'll close out by saying man 294 00:16:35,759 --> 00:16:37,680 warm audio 295 00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:39,839 you were the biggest surprise for me i 296 00:16:39,839 --> 00:16:42,399 think you've made a killer mic i never 297 00:16:42,399 --> 00:16:43,920 heard the first version but what you've 298 00:16:43,920 --> 00:16:47,040 done on the r2 here is is really a 299 00:16:47,040 --> 00:16:48,880 fantastic mic 300 00:16:48,880 --> 00:16:51,920 same thing for carlos at serrano audio 301 00:16:51,920 --> 00:16:54,320 and for ben at bee's knees 302 00:16:54,320 --> 00:16:56,639 i can tell you guys really really spend 303 00:16:56,639 --> 00:16:58,880 a lot of time on making these mics 304 00:16:58,880 --> 00:17:00,720 like i said before i've been recording 305 00:17:00,720 --> 00:17:04,640 seriously for money since 1994. 306 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:05,919 and um 307 00:17:05,919 --> 00:17:07,439 feel free to leave a comment about like 308 00:17:07,439 --> 00:17:08,959 hey there's no way you don't look old 309 00:17:08,959 --> 00:17:10,640 enough uh 310 00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:12,400 but i have been 311 00:17:12,400 --> 00:17:15,280 and

00:17:21,439 understand how much better of a 315 00:17:21,439 --> 00:17:22,720 microphone 316 00:17:22,720 --> 00:17:26,240 something like the warm wa87 317 00:17:26,240 --> 00:17:28,880 or the serrano or the bee's knees 318 00:17:28,880 --> 00:17:30,960 it is so much better than what i had 319 00:17:30,960 --> 00:17:33,039 available to me for the same price when 320 00:17:33,039 --> 00:17:36,400 i first got started i had a rode nt2 321 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,320 i had an akg 322 00:17:38,320 --> 00:17:40,480 something 3000 i don't even remember the 323 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:41,840 model number 324 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:43,280 they were much 325 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:44,960 much more expensive than this at the 326 00:17:44,960 --> 00:17:47,520 time and they were not great mics 327 00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:48,640 at all 328 00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:50,720 they were really bright 329 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:53,840 and i had eight tracks to record with on 330 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,799 my roland vs 880 well even before that 331 00:17:56,799 --> 00:17:58,000 four tracks 332 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,600 on the tascam 333 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,360 uh four track you know you record on 334 00:18:01,360 --> 00:18:03,520 both sides of the cassette so if you've 335 00:18:03,520 --> 00:18:06,320 got a daw if you're if you're working in 336 00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:09,039 logic or reaper or something 337 00:18:09,039 --> 00:18:11,760 and you need one good mic and you've got 338 00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:14,960 500 bucks you can throw out a worm or 339 00:18:14,960 --> 00:18:19,120 you know 600 bucks at a bee's knees or 340 00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:22,000 seven or eight hundred out of serrano 341 00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,320 you have tools that are so far beyond 342 00:18:24,320 --> 00:18:26,000 what many of us had when we were 343 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,080 starting out in the 90s or the 80s as 344 00:18:28,080 --> 00:18:29,440 far as home 345 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:30,960 home studio 346 00:18:30,960 --> 00:18:32,720 so i just want you to be able to move 347 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,400 forward with confidence 348 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:36,160 take advantage of some of these amazing 349 00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,720 affordable new tools that we have 350 00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:41,520 and where i think vintage is still the 351 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:42,880 ultimate 352 00:18:42,880 --> 00:18:45,120 holy grail i will let you know 353 00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:46,640 in times that i don't think that's the 354 00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:48,000 case like now 355 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:49,840 and i should also say this is not the 356 00:18:49,840 --> 00:18:52,640 only vintage 87 i've ever used it's the 357 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,320 second one that i've owned and both 358 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,240 times i was able to get a hold of ones 359 00:18:56,240 --> 00:18:58,080 that were in good condition so i'm not 360 00:18:58,080 --> 00:19:00,720 just saying oh i got this one mic and 361 00:19:00,720 --> 00:19:02,320 whatever 362 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:04,080 but i really think in this case we can 363 00:19:04,080 --> 00:19:06,160 put this one to bed having said that if 364 00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:07,600 you listen to the examples and you 365 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:09,120 thought man that vintage really sounds 366 00:19:09,120 --> 00:19:10,799 like how i want to hear things and you 367 00:19:10,799 --> 00:19:11,760 have the 368 00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:13,200 funds to do that and it's not going to 369 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:15,280 put you in a hole and put that pressure 370 00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,320 of debt on you then by all means do it 371 00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:20,000 but if you're building your recording 372 00:19:20,000 --> 00:19:21,039 gear 373 00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:23,039 i say pick one of these 374 00:19:23,039 --> 00:19:26,080 newer clones that you like the most 375 00:19:26,080 --> 00:19:28,480 and get a pair and and don't look back 376 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,559 you got your drum overheads you've got 377 00:19:30,559 --> 00:19:32,080 your acoustic mic 378 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,840 you can put it on your guitar amp and 379 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:36,160 you can sing through it amongst many 380 00:19:36,160 --> 00:19:37,360 other things 381 00:19:37,360 --> 00:19:40,000 so anyway that's my two cents like i 382 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:41,280 said i don't usually get this 383 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,360 opinionated on a video but i i feel 384 00:19:43,360 --> 00:19:44,799 pretty strongly about this one 385 00:19:44,799 --> 00:19:48,240 especially when the financials are so 386 00:19:48,240 --> 00:19:49,679 different between the clone and the 387 00:19:49,679 --> 00:19:50,640 vintage 388 00:19:50,640 --> 00:19:52,640 all right guys i've talked enough i 389 00:19:52,640 --> 00:19:55,039 appreciate your time if you got value 390 00:19:55,039 -->
