[Music]
2
00:00:08,660 --> 00:00:13,500
okay today I want to up my game I want
3
00:00:13,500 --> 00:00:16,560
to improve something that sounds so
4
00:00:16,560 --> 00:00:18,359
simple just recording vocals and
5
00:00:18,359 --> 00:00:20,279
acoustic guitar but actually quite a few
6
00:00:20,279 --> 00:00:21,840
things can go wrong
7
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:23,820
there are so many processes that I put
8
00:00:23,820 --> 00:00:25,980
in place just to protect myself from
9
00:00:25,980 --> 00:00:28,859
making mistakes when I am running and
10
00:00:28,859 --> 00:00:31,740
gunning it and I just I just want to
11
00:00:31,740 --> 00:00:34,140
make a one percent Improvement on
12
00:00:34,140 --> 00:00:36,840
something that if you get it right it
13
00:00:36,840 --> 00:00:39,239
sounds amazing and if you get it wrong
14
00:00:39,239 --> 00:00:42,360
you might suffer from phasing issues or
15
00:00:42,360 --> 00:00:44,640
it just might not have the je ne Sequoia
16
00:00:44,640 --> 00:00:46,680
that you really really want to capture
17
00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:49,140
your just strip back acoustic
18
00:00:49,140 --> 00:00:51,239
performance what has inspired me to do
19
00:00:51,239 --> 00:00:53,460
this you ask yes well
20
00:00:53,460 --> 00:00:54,719
there are
21
00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:56,160
these
22
00:00:56,160 --> 00:00:59,699
vintage neumans okay quick history
23
00:00:59,699 --> 00:01:03,000
lesson about the Neumann u87 microphone
24
00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,000
Neumann founded in 1928 and based in
25
00:01:06,000 --> 00:01:07,439
Berlin is a prominent German
26
00:01:07,439 --> 00:01:09,479
manufacturer of professional recording
27
00:01:09,479 --> 00:01:11,640
microphones the company's pioneering
28
00:01:11,640 --> 00:01:13,380
founder George Neumann was a technical
29
00:01:13,380 --> 00:01:15,119
genius who simultaneously developed
30
00:01:15,119 --> 00:01:17,640
phonograph record cutting machines and
31
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:19,560
rechargeable batteries as well as their
32
00:01:19,560 --> 00:01:21,840
high grade microphones the u87 is the
33
00:01:21,840 --> 00:01:24,180
best known Neumann microphone it's been
34
00:01:24,180 --> 00:01:25,860
the world's most widely used studio
35
00:01:25,860 --> 00:01:28,500
microphone for over 50 years expensive
36
00:01:28,500 --> 00:01:30,240
but synonymous with quality and
37
00:01:30,240 --> 00:01:32,820
dependability brought to Market in 1967
38
00:01:32,820 --> 00:01:34,979
it's been the tech behind countless hit
39
00:01:34,979 --> 00:01:37,320
records for the past 50 years from the
40
00:01:37,320 --> 00:01:39,420
Rolling Stones Exile on Main Street to
41
00:01:39,420 --> 00:01:41,820
Carly Rae jepson's Call Me Maybe as well
42
00:01:41,820 --> 00:01:43,380
as being the preferred microphone for
43
00:01:43,380 --> 00:01:46,619
radio DJs and other broadcasters Neumann
44
00:01:46,619 --> 00:01:48,900
was awarded a technical Grammy in 1999
45
00:01:48,900 --> 00:01:51,360
in recognition of its many technological
46
00:01:51,360 --> 00:01:53,340
accomplishments it's been a part of the
47
00:01:53,340 --> 00:01:55,799
Sennheiser group since 1991 and launched
48
00:01:55,799 --> 00:01:58,560
its first headphones the Neumann ndh-20
49
00:01:58,560 --> 00:02:02,040
in 2019 so I've got two of these to play
50
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:04,799
around with one for vocals one for
51
00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:08,270
Guitar let's get set up
52
00:02:08,280 --> 00:02:11,160
be back for you later okay I need two
53
00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:14,160
mic stands two cables I need an
54
00:02:14,160 --> 00:02:16,560
interface I need a laptop I need in-ear
55
00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,809
monitors I need an extension cable
56
00:02:20,819 --> 00:02:27,229
legs
57
00:02:27,239 --> 00:02:30,120
I'm just fixing the mics while I'm sat
58
00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,760
down so that I can really really think
59
00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:35,819
about where I want them vocal mic I'm
60
00:02:35,819 --> 00:02:38,160
I've got it upside down uh it's a figure
61
00:02:38,160 --> 00:02:42,480
of eight polar pattern so just thinking
62
00:02:42,480 --> 00:02:45,599
what that physically is and the space
63
00:02:45,599 --> 00:02:48,540
and having it slightly angled up towards
64
00:02:48,540 --> 00:02:51,720
my voice there is recording for the sake
65
00:02:51,720 --> 00:02:54,120
of recording in a studio session where
66
00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:55,500
you don't have cameras around and then
67
00:02:55,500 --> 00:02:58,140
there's recording on camera and I would
68
00:02:58,140 --> 00:02:59,459
say they are actually two different art
69
00:02:59,459 --> 00:03:02,580
forms so I am going to do my best you
70
00:03:02,580 --> 00:03:04,140
know squeeze the camera in squeeze the
71
00:03:04,140 --> 00:03:06,720
mics in get as best as you can it just
72
00:03:06,720 --> 00:03:09,120
might not be complete Studio level
73
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:13,739
recording with the guitar microphone I
74
00:03:13,739 --> 00:03:16,440
don't want too much bleed from my vocals
75
00:03:16,440 --> 00:03:17,940
so I think I need this a little bit
76
00:03:17,940 --> 00:03:21,959
lower this is always where Josh Turner's
77
00:03:21,959 --> 00:03:25,140
slogan I remember on his baseball cap
78
00:03:25,140 --> 00:03:27,480
where it's fixing pre guitar mic
79
00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,780
pointing towards the guitar having the
80
00:03:30,780 --> 00:03:32,760
top near my voice so that it won't be
81
00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:35,819
picking up too much of that having the
82
00:03:35,819 --> 00:03:37,140
vocal mic
83
00:03:37,140 --> 00:03:40,319
angled up get them as close together
84
00:03:40,319 --> 00:03:41,940
so that I can be quite nice and intimate
85
00:03:41,940 --> 00:03:43,440
with the guitar I just I just really
86
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:45,120
want this to work
87
00:03:45,120 --> 00:03:47,400
obviously
88
00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:48,659
but
89
00:03:48,659 --> 00:03:50,700
it's nice having you along with me
90
00:03:50,700 --> 00:03:52,560
so fun fact
91
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,900
um I got this about two years ago and I
92
00:03:54,900 --> 00:03:56,700
opened it on camera and there is a video
93
00:03:56,700 --> 00:03:59,340
of me discovering this gorgeous
94
00:03:59,340 --> 00:04:00,720
instrument you wouldn't want to gig with
95
00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,280
this case
96
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:06,130
oh
97
00:04:06,140 --> 00:04:09,060
my God
98
00:04:09,060 --> 00:04:13,140
hey oh and now it's still kicking around
99
00:04:13,140 --> 00:04:14,580
still got it
100
00:04:14,580 --> 00:04:18,660
and it was actually from 1937 not 1936
101
00:04:18,660 --> 00:04:22,500
as it was advertised to me people have
102
00:04:22,500 --> 00:04:24,180
um investigated this serial number and
103
00:04:24,180 --> 00:04:26,940
discovered it was from 1937 instead
104
00:04:26,940 --> 00:04:29,400
but uh yeah this Epiphone it feels like
105
00:04:29,400 --> 00:04:31,380
I'm gonna capture something special
106
00:04:31,380 --> 00:04:35,160
through something from yeah the 1930s
107
00:04:35,160 --> 00:04:37,259
um and then these microphones might be
108
00:04:37,259 --> 00:04:40,199
as old as sort of like early 1970s or
109
00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:42,120
late 1960s
110
00:04:42,120 --> 00:04:43,620
um I think they're I think they're the
111
00:04:43,620 --> 00:04:46,080
70s versions okay I've got my in-ear
112
00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:50,780
monitors I have two XLR cables
113
00:04:50,780 --> 00:04:55,830
hello oh
114
00:04:55,840 --> 00:05:07,010
[Music]
115
00:05:07,020 --> 00:05:11,759
something is recording I'm gonna check
116
00:05:11,759 --> 00:05:14,400
it's the right level
117
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:18,060
think the guitar could go up somewhat
118
00:05:18,060 --> 00:05:21,180
depending on what I'm playing
119
00:05:21,180 --> 00:05:23,759
so I've just set the screen recording
120
00:05:23,759 --> 00:05:27,240
live and there is nothing going on there
121
00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:29,820
are no plugins whatsoever on this audio
122
00:05:29,820 --> 00:05:31,919
just as an example
123
00:05:31,919 --> 00:05:35,580
I am directing the guitar mic towards
124
00:05:35,580 --> 00:05:39,780
the f-holes and I really have
125
00:05:39,780 --> 00:05:42,780
got the vocals I think pretty spot on I
126
00:05:42,780 --> 00:05:44,160
still have a little bit of room for
127
00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:46,320
maneuver if I'm moving my head but
128
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:48,539
here's just a separation
129
00:05:48,539 --> 00:05:57,280
oh
130
00:05:57,290 --> 00:06:03,840
[Music]
131
00:06:03,840 --> 00:06:15,420
oh
132
00:06:15,430 --> 00:06:25,259
[Music]
133
00:06:25,259 --> 00:06:27,180
now I'm sure people will be able to tell
134
00:06:27,180 --> 00:06:28,080
me
135
00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,560
the guitar is definitely not picking up
136
00:06:31,560 --> 00:06:33,960
on the vocal mic as much as the vocals
137
00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,759
are picking up on the guitar mic
138
00:06:35,759 --> 00:06:37,440
so I'm wondering if there is room for
139
00:06:37,440 --> 00:06:39,660
improvement there but I'm just going to
140
00:06:39,660 --> 00:06:41,759
take a listen and then do you know what
141
00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:42,660
I think we're just going to get
142
00:06:42,660 --> 00:06:44,880
recording I'm going to set up my in-ear
143
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:45,780
mix
144
00:06:45,780 --> 00:06:47,460
um add a little bit of Reverb just for
145
00:06:47,460 --> 00:06:50,160
me to listen to while
146
00:06:50,160 --> 00:06:52,740
recording I'm going to have a click
147
00:06:52,740 --> 00:06:54,600
track as well through the inners
148
00:06:54,600 --> 00:06:56,880
one other reason that I love in-ear
149
00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,580
monitors when recording These acoustic
150
00:06:59,580 --> 00:07:01,979
intimate sets is that headphones make my
151
00:07:01,979 --> 00:07:03,539
head hot
152
00:07:03,539 --> 00:07:06,960
secondly I think the The Click bleed is
153
00:07:06,960 --> 00:07:08,160
much worse from headphones than from
154
00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:10,500
in-ears in-ears are basically almost
155
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:12,660
indistinguishable because they are
156
00:07:12,660 --> 00:07:14,340
directly in your eardrums in your
157
00:07:14,340 --> 00:07:16,139
eardrums that's not what I mean you know
158
00:07:16,139 --> 00:07:18,360
what I mean let's get into performance
159
00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:19,440
mode
160
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:48,969
[Music]
161
00:07:48,979 --> 00:07:53,639
another turning point so this took a lot
162
00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:57,599
of trial and error I did a whole session
163
00:07:57,599 --> 00:07:58,680
earlier
164
00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:00,419
I don't know how many times I actually
165
00:08:00,419 --> 00:08:03,120
played through the song but it was far
166
00:08:03,120 --> 00:08:04,680
too many times and I was doing it in the
167
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,180
wrong key
168
00:08:06,180 --> 00:08:10,020
and it just sounded really like
169
00:08:10,020 --> 00:08:12,120
and so I just shifted it up a little bit
170
00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:13,979
I'm really happy with the results I've
171
00:08:13,979 --> 00:08:15,840
just listened back and it's just really
172
00:08:15,840 --> 00:08:19,319
crystal clear and this was
173
00:08:19,319 --> 00:08:22,440
the way I ended up
174
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,419
putting it together the camera had been
175
00:08:24,419 --> 00:08:27,240
over the other side but yeah it's just
176
00:08:27,240 --> 00:08:29,819
it's just still figuring it out and just
177
00:08:29,819 --> 00:08:31,740
um you know always experimenting and
178
00:08:31,740 --> 00:08:33,599
always giving yourself enough time I was
179
00:08:33,599 --> 00:08:35,700
a little bit rushed earlier
180
00:08:35,700 --> 00:08:38,640
um and yeah sometimes you just have to
181
00:08:38,640 --> 00:08:42,539
be able to film until very late in the
182
00:08:42,539 --> 00:08:45,240
evening time does not stand still when
183
00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,980
you're recording like hours will just
184
00:08:46,980 --> 00:08:49,380
disappear and I bet you guys feel the
185
00:08:49,380 --> 00:08:51,120
same but anyway thank you very much for
186
00:08:51,120 --> 00:08:52,620
watching this vlog
187
00:08:52,620 --> 00:08:55,140
