it's not a RE320 - this is called an EV RE-20 n/d. - the RE320 is a completely different mic.

The EV RE-20 is one of the most underrated professional microphones used in the recording industry for years an produced many hit songs. Stevie Wonder, Bonnie Raitt, Paul McCartney, Peter Cetera, Jackson Browne, Marshal Crenshaw, John Forgerty and Radiohead are just a few professionals utilizing the RE-20 in the studio. There is.an excellent video of Chicago's Peter Cetera singing "Feeling Stronger.Everday" in the studio which was.produced by.Phil Ramone from Nederland, CO which was a Top 40 hit. Elton John also recorded at this studio. It did take me some time to uncover the names mentioned, but well worth it for EV RE20 fans like myself. Great vocal performance. It just goes to show you that.a lot of professionals like dynamic microphones like the RE20, Sennheiser MD421/MD441, and Shure SM7B. These just happen to be the world leaders in Broadcasting in the World. Thanks for posting...

you should check out radiohead from the basement, ever since i saw that video 3 years ago ive been wanting this mic

Thom Yorke has used it for vocals for years.

That is unbelievable. I've never watched a review and just fallen in love with a product so much as this one. Woah, so crisp!

5 years on youtube this is my first comment, you've got a beautiful voice and the microphone is stunning !

Great song, great demo, great voice, great mustache. I finally bought a RE20 and a cloudlifter because of this clip. Thanks and best wishes from Germany!

Really great album-love the energy, feeling and sound!!!

Beautiful performance!

Dude, this the exact review I’ve been looking for on this mic! Thanks for doing this and great job!

The EV RE20 has flown underneath the radar for years as an absolute #1 choice for hit vocal recording. Peter Cetera of Chicago used this microphone on Feeling Stronger Every Day. Others that have used the RE-20 for vocals include Stevie Wonder, Paul McCartney, Thom Yorke, Producer Don Was, Marshal Crenshaw, Scritti Politti, and countless others. RE-20 is also an excellent choice for recording bass drum, toms, floor tom, horns, and guitar cabinets. I own plenty of microphones, condensers, ribbons, tube, dynamics, fet's and the RE-20 holds it's own against many of these. It has been a real workhorse in my work for many years. Like the Sennheiser 421 and 441 and Shure SM7B, RE-20 is a best-kept secret around the world for vocal production. These radio broadcast mics are excellent on vocals. Their is a reason why Michael Jackson used the Shure SM7B for vocals on Thriller. And the Sennheiser 421 and 441 have been used by countless vocalists like Stevie Nicks, Linda Ronstadt and the Who to name a few. Very good video, Thanks...

Great song, great voice, and great demo. Thank you, Jeffrey!

That was an awesome take , congrats!! and the mic sounds amazing too!

Wow, fantastic voice, and extremely helpful video! You've really sold me on this mic! Thanks so much dude

Very nice voice. This mic has a very warm and natural tone. The cloudlifter is a real game changer.

Beautifully done. Love the singing, I think you sold this mic to many people :-) I too was looking for reviews of this mic with vocals and singing. Thank You.

Wow, gives me chills. Great sound and song. Just love it.

Oh man.... What a sweet voice, and the mic captures every detail! i love it! GREAT work

got goosebumps! You sound amazing and I love that warm tone, I think I'll get a re20 bc of that video thank you!

Thank you for the video, as well as the performance!

Very informative and well played. First time hearing that haunting song. Nicely done.

I have watched your videos a lot of times and I really enjoy them man. Your voice is amazing. Hope you keep making music for a long time!

Hey thank you. I really wanted to hear this mic on its own, and as an added bonus your singing and performance was a delight. Cheers!

I've been searching for a video like this in few days, a video that has a guy singing very beautifully with warmth in a cloudlifter test! good job

Mate, you're insane. This is bomb. 10/10 wow.

Beautiful song and sound.Thank you and Merry Christmas 2020 from Toronto Canada.

Simply amazing!

Thank you for putting this up and singing beautifully. Bandmate lent me his mic to try and I thought let me see what there is to know out there and what a surprise to find your encouraging video!

wow. just wow. love the song. Came here for a demo of the re-20 for broadcasting and found your music. love it.

Excellent job on the song. Love this microphone and the SM7b for vocals. My two favorites.

My favorite vocal mic. You got a really great vocal sound man!

Beautiful, thank you for the test

Amazing video...amazing song...amazing microphone.

Great voice. Great mic.

I also came here to listen to a mic example before I bought one, but keep coming back to play this video just for that song, really great, Jeffery.

Nice one man. Your album is going to sound great

Massively beautiful！I even forgot this is a Re20 review!

Much appreciated, I've been investigating the possibility of a high quality dynamic mic (with better sound rejection for my untreated space) for recording vocals and this really sounded great.

Morning Jeff ... thanks for taking the time to do this .... been looking for a different mic though I have a couple of nice ones ... to reach down a little more into low mids and baritones of my vocal .... rolled back around the the re20 ... and for your video .. one of a kind. Well done.

your voice really shines on this mic. great singing and great sound!

WOOOOOWWWW I've come to check the sound of EV RE20 but then I'm shocked of how beautiful is this guys voice. Song is very nice also. I searched the original version. Jeffrey sings 1000 times better than the original. Amazing. RE20 also amazing but I'd prefer just bit more high ends for this microphone.

Great job with the song brother. Thanks for the info on the mic too !

Those low chest tones you mentioned here also resonated my throat through my spine as listening to this and other RE20 demo clips. That effect sold me this mic.

This is fantastic. Thanks. It's the mic I've been missing...

I'll be completely honest. I have watched a LOT of reviews and demos and lessons featuring various gear. I have never, ever, not even once enjoyed the homemade songs from the unknown artists featured in them (I'm quite unforgiving). This changed with this video. This is a legit good song and a masterpiece that could definitely be a famous hit. Well done sir. Continuing with the honesty though, I thought that the vocal sound of the RE-20 here wasn't as good as the RE-20 typically sounds. Almost as if it had too much mud or boxiness, or like "untreated room" sound or something. Never the less, great work with the song. Chilling writing and vocals.

Kyle, since you probably have some knowledge about mics, I'd like to ask you one thing. I'd like to make recordings in an untreated room. Condenser mics provide a lot of quality but catch the reverb from the room. Dynamic mics sound somewhat thin compared to condensers but reject the room reverb nicely. I want to find an excellent balance between the sound richness and rejection capabilities. People always mention two mics to achieve this: SM7B and EV RE20. I'm currently inclined towards EV RE20 as it seems that this mic sounds richer. What would you advise me to achieve that nice balance that I mentioned above?

@sevchyk hey, cloudlifter also boosts base level noise, just so ya know! I've thought about it until tonight. I have an re20 and it gets to gainy. :( I need to experiment more and maybe record with it less hot and boost volume by compression the way he does.

Excellent tone on the VOX, and the RE-20 suits it well for a warm vintage vibe! Sounds like a song from that “Yellowstone” show.

Amazing performance. Thanks for giving us the RE20´s sound in such a great fashion!

You sound amazing. I know it's a little late, but that you for posting this!

I’ve used the RE20 for occasional voiceover work for years, but was looking for a video today that would show how it sounds when somebody sings. Like many others commenting here, I did NOT expect to sit and enjoy the song so much. Well done.

Might have to get this mic. I really enjoyed this, beautiful sound great voice and playing too bro! :)

Great voice. Lovely mic sound!

Amazing sound on the RE20

Been thinking about adding an re20 to my arsenal. You have just sold it to me. Thanks!

Great! Yeah, that’s true most of the reviews is about broadcasting, thanks for showcasing the mic when singing. You got awesome voice, love that low end boom & slow country vibe.

Your voice and singing sounds amazing trough this chain.

Came for the mic test with the cloudlifter, stayed for the amazing song!!! Awesome job dude!!

God bless dave van ronk . I'm sure he would love your cover. really beautiful.
