You need to know that you have scammers trying to scam your fans with your name and I think in the future you need to make a video to let your fans know that it’s not you that is scamming them.

He is the reason this mic made waves in the audio industry. That’s why I believe that these new less expensive mics with amazing technology will cost so much years from today.

Most microphones today are mass produced, so they will likely not have the value mics from the 50s-90s have.

For earth song, Bruce said he recorded Michael on a Neumann 47 and asked him to sing as close as possible to the mic 🤣 ✌️

Yes, Bruce switched up and I love how he says "I have no secrets, I will give you all every piece of information that you ask me for." Not only was Bruce a great engineer but he always gave back. Thank you for coming by Alexandre.

Rest in Peace Bruce Swedien

The SM7 and SM7B sound totally different. The SM7 has a way more clean and detailed top end. I think it sounds infinity better. Not to mention MJ was so damed talented he could sound godly through a walky talky if he wanted to.

Crazy how 7k is such a doable vocal chain.

Great video. I seen videos of MJ recording on Neumann m149. I read some article for his last album he recorded on the Sony C800g.

I got the SM7b because I heard MJ used it. I don't have anything like his quality of voice, but we have similar tones. And I've found that my 67 just makes my voice sound a bit too harsh.

Archie any chance you can tell me what your favorite mastering compressor is? Loving all these videos 🎉🎉❤

I could have been lied to by a friend of one his engineer’s I met at musicians institute or he was lied to, but him and a few others said the sm7 was ONLY for Billie Jean and one other song on thriller but not the song thriller. For the of the songs he used a 251 (Bruce did have multiple of them). The idea to try the sm7 was tried to further encapsulate the almost speaking or direct confessional delivery of Billie Jean and how much space that mix had compared to the other “dance” tunes on the album. From then on he almost exclusively used 251s and Sony c800gs from the late 90s on. I can’t currently find any articles to back this up (anymore) but you can kind of hear the differences between thriller songs and how there was for sure different mics used) either way it doesn’t really matter so much since we aren’t recording Michael and can’t even if he wanted to

Looks like you know a bit. In this video he mentions the chains of tools used either the microphone. Do you know the rest used either the 251? I need that setup structure. Hope you get to see this! Thank you!

Great vid

How do you feel about the Acustica Audio Lava mic emulations?

Archie find the vocal chain that was used for recording 'Speechless' for me...pleeeeeaaaaassseeee!!!!!

People really forget 80% of what makes a vocal sound good is eq even if your vocal is recorded in top notch gear also the mix surrounding the vocal if your not making space in mix it’s also gonna sound ass even if the vocal itself is cleaned up

What's up Brandon? I can definitely do that type of video but the settings will be slightly different depending on the rapper. It changes with every person but we can do a ballpark swing for sure.

@@archiebeatz Nice thanks! Just a good starting point for the people. Rappers and Singers. I looked online and there's really nothing on it. So you'll basically be the first and only person to do it

Didn't he also record on a Harrison Console

Bro.. I tought ill learn a think or two... But thanx anyway

So much talkk

Here’s the context 😂 The gear is only the secret sauce to the vocal, the meat has to be there standing in front of the mic first… the vocal chain isn’t going to cover up the meat… but, if the meats just perfect then that secret sauce is going to take that eye rolling to next level

The voice has to do the chain justice and vice versa

Answer starts at 2:25

Vocal chain 7000 dollars but voice is how much sir?

I thought it was Sony mic

To bad MJ vocal not include in this chain😄

And the interface?

@archiebeatz

Interfaces didn't exist then. Only recording console (large mixers), tape machines and early digital recorders.
