| Which Preamps for the Sony C800G ? Hello all, My name is Teo from France and this is my first post. Here's a link of my studio called Infernale Machine Research Center : http://www.tgos.fr/imrc.html I'm a huge fan of vintage effects but my first question regards voices preamps. I use for voices the Sony C800G microphone and I'm looking for the best preamp or channel strip for it. In fact the sony c800 G is a very neutral microphone and to record male voice I'm interested by a colored sound. Give me your advice ... Thanks |

| I usually use something with a Neve type character. Things like the BAE 1073's, Aurora Audio GTQ2, etc.. |

| As Tony said, you can't go wrong with Neve. 1084, 1073, even a 1272 or 3405 based pre-amp.

| Thanks for your prompt replies ... I have a neve 33135 but I am sure that a 1073 will be better. What do you think about the millenia TD-1 ? |

IMO what that mic is missing is midrange. I wouldn't go through a Neve or API since they tend to be scooped anyways...I'd go with a GML or a tube pre (like the requisite PAL+) or even the newer SSL designs...pick a pre to compensate what the mic is lacking Also the millennia you mentioned will give you a scooped kinda sound ... | |
