The 87 was by far the best sounding, bright yet smooth. I'm impressed

Yes, the U87 always was a good all around mic for many studios. It happens to fit my voice very well. When I have a customer comming in the studio, I always start with the S87 and if I find it to bright for the voice I go with the T47 or too dark the T12. It's my first EQ move on the audio ! :)

The T47 on drums was a delight. For the guitar, the T12 sounds lovely. Thank for the review, that was very instructive. Cheers from Canada.

it depends what you want to record.. for vocal, the S87 is more of a do it all. But if what you want to record has some agressive high frequencies, like cymbals or a lot of sibilance in a vocal, then the S47 or T47 is a good choice..

Okay...my problem with shootout videos is this. (Acoustic guitar) The mic placement of these 3 microphones will be as different sounding as the mics themselves. The argument is always well it’s better than to have different performances. But, they still are when switching from mic to mic in real time. I think 3 separate takes of the mics in exact position using measurements. Use a click so you can still go from one to the other in time. And yes...a consistent performer will be a must.

There is no perfect solution, several takes means you can't do null tests.. But the difference you here in this video give a idea how different the mics are... ;)

Methinks you should build them and test yourself!

Hello! do you know the difference between the s47 and the t47? Great video!

Yes, the T47 has a transformer in its design and the S47 does not. The transformer will give it some subtle character and the S47 will be being a bit cleaner. Its design will also give a bit more sensitivity. (The S87 I have needs about 3-5db less gain on the preamp)

very good vídeo, Wich is better for a rap vocal? im baritone male voice. Thanks.

They all work perfectly for any genre of music.. it is more about the timber of the voice itself. The S87 is a good all around, if the voice has a lot of sibilance, go with the 47 and if the voice sounds dark the HF bumb on the t12 will help.. If you are recording many customer's voices, go with the S87, it will work great on the majority of voice types and it takes EQ very well...

87 voice, 12 guitar and 47 drums... all serviceable across the board, but I just wanted an excuse to get one of each haha

Hey Marco, I bought a T47 from Mic Parts. It's been so hard to open the mic and I don't want to apply too much pressure to open it. Hints?

The only part that you need to turn is the base near the connector.. So one hand on the body near the grill and the other at the base. Check my building video, it will help : kzread.info/dash/bejne/pap3lNyYg5nThMo.html

47 is the best

Which Is better for harmonic song ? T47 ? Thank you 😊

@MarcoPrimeau

Do you mean harmonica ? In any case, it always depends on the source. The T47 has less high frequencies and rounder low end. It is best used on agressive high frequencies like sibilant voices or very nazal sounds, like violins. And it also do a great job on low frequency driven instruments, like bass and bassdrums, cello etc..

Hi everyone, Can y'all recommend me some microphones that: -can be used to record with a smartphone -can also be used with and benefit from an audiointerface -versatile enough to be used on most instruments and singing. -studio quality.nstruments and singing. -studio/high quality

@MarcoPrimeau

To my knowledge, there isn't any mic that does it all like that.. I suggest you avoid USB mics or mics build specially for smartphones. The quality isn't very good. Also high quality recordings ask for far more than a mic. Quality instrument, room treatement, preamp etc.. Some interfaces exist for smartphones, like the Roland Go: Mixer Pro. You could buy this and a regular XLR mic and be good with the smartphones then good with any computer audio interface that has mic inputs. If you want more suggestions, you can go to www.recording.org . It's free and full of experienced recordist and also pro engineers ;)

Just get a zoom portable recorder or something. Always buy XLR mics

If you are not good at soldering, don't buy a kit unless someone more competent at soldering can help you
