  Hi, which microphone would be best for male hip hop/rap vocals? , mki or mkvi? , mki is vintage u87 and mkvi is brighter u87 according to the seller's description

  @@jagg_97 I'm sorry. I know nothing of hip hop. The MkIV is said to be more AKGish, and I tend to find it the most useful all round, usually on voice 2. I'd say the MkI in voicing 1 can be quite bright, so I imagine the VI is bright beyond anything I'd ever want.

  I wonder where the first Steamboat is from? Where did Peter Kennedy source it? Does anyone know?

  @DocRossi2 ай бұрын

  This is from The Fiddler's Companion: “Steamboat Hornpipe” was in the repertoire of the 19th century Tyneside, Northumberland, fiddler and composer James Hill (c. 1815-c. 1860), to whom it is sometimes attributed, although this has not been ascertained. Hill was Scottish-born, but lived most of his life in Gateshead, Northumberland, and was known as the ‘Paganini of the hornpipe’ for his famous hornpipe compositions. Not much is known about him, although he appears to have been a popular tavern fiddler, sometime publican, and sports enthusiast. The first half of the tune is employed in an untitled hornpipe in the Ellis Knowles manuscript, c. 1847, from Radcliffe, Lancashire, England (printed in the Plain Brown Tune Book, pg. 42). Similarly, the first part of the tune appears in the 1831 music manuscript of George Spencer (Leeds, England) {see abc’s below}. Hill’s heyday was in the 1840’s to early 1850’s, and it may be that the first part of the melody was in circulation prior to his “improvements” (Hill was also apparently not one to discourage attributions of popular melodies to himself).

  You're very kind - and right about your children's heritage. It's shocking that children in this country grow to adulthood without knowing much about their country and it's interesting, strange and sometimes exotic cultural stuff, beyond what the Establishment thinks is strictly necessary and respectable. The Establishment has such tunnel vision!

  Hi. I would like to know which microphone do you prefer for singing Warbler IV or Warbler II? thanks for the song!

• 
  @GavinAtkin5 ай бұрын

  I think mic choice has to be based on the voice, the nature of the room you're working in (and what you're able to do to improve it) and the effect you're trying to achieve. The MkII has a pleasant, smooth quality on my slightly nasal baritone, but I find I have to dial out some lower mids soupiness that's probably proximity effect and due to its hypercardiod pickup pattern. In this video, I didn't cut those lower mids quite enough, I think... I'm always experimenting, so I use different mics all the time. Even in voicing 2 the MkIV isn't nearly so flattering and likely nearer the truth! But it's probably a good starting point for many voices particularly in higher ranges. So you might say I'd choose the MkII for medium range mail voices, and the MkIV for a tenor or higher. My favourite home recording mic currently is the AT AE5040, btw; it doesn't look much, but it's smooth, takes EQ well and does a better than average job of rejecting unwanted sounds.

• 
  @GavinAtkin5 ай бұрын

  @@EugenBabasch Good luck. Btw, I've recently found the plugin Smooth Operator can be useful with the quality of mics I own: it can be used on its own to control unwanted peakiness, but it can also help to identify where those peaks are. This gives you a choice to either rely on the SO plugin itself, or to apply cuts in those areas using EQ before the signal reaches SO, which you can then use more gently... My take is that SO's compression is best used gently, so I often usethe EQ route

  @@EugenBabasch You'll know about the influence of rooms, mic position and pickup pattern tightness, then... If you plump for a Warbler, do try each of the three voices. I have several, and always think voicing 2 is the most appealing. Is the MK119 as wide as my MK219s?

(Signs in the pub warn you to mind your head when stepping up to the bar, and they have padded the offending beam to make it less of a blow when you forget! I speak from experience).
