Cool Mic Comparo: Golden Ears requested - Page 2

didier.brest · 9th February 2010

I was correct for associating the tracks from both takes. But for associating the mics to the tracks, I was correct only for the (poor performing IMO) CM-28. So, my preference order was Sennheiser, Brauner, DPA. I've got a pair of Brauner Valvet and a pair of DPA 4060. No Sennheiser at this time...

Excellent test. Thank you again!

Not having golden ears, I opted to identify the mics correctly without even listening - just used the scope display in Digicheck :-). On subsequent listening: 8040 the most satisfying; CM-28 mediocre; Brauner beautiful, solid, but too narrow.

Soo... what did your scope display have to say about the output of Roger Daltrey's SM58 at the Super Bowl...?

Pretty much what my ears told me, about the organ concert as well. Must be a good 'scope...
