Hurray! Just received my new toy Sennheiser E606.It has i bit different response at top end (comparing to sm57) so it's a great add to recording set for warmer guitar tones
Here's a very quick demo https://soundcloud.com/dariuswave/dl-david-laboga-2x12-standard All set up described in soundcloud description |

They sound a bit more complex compared to others. |

Here you have a pic of my cabinets micked during the recording of Cirse's second album. There you will find sm 57, AKG 421 and Sennheiser 609. From my experience, Shure SM 57 is the best one for rock guitars, and I like to add AKG 421, or Sennheiser 609 to add an extra color to the tone. That's what I did during the mix of that album.

Here is a little sample. When looking for a warm tone I found a nice balance having the 7 cm distance, between position, off axis (respect to the coil angle) and a 1 cm thick acoustic foam. You can see how it cuts some nasty 5 kHz range. Reson of 7 cm distance is the low overload while holding the mic closer. Mic is Audio-technica atm650 (very similar sounding to sm57 but some extra add in 1kHz range).
If You put the same foam in the center (coil) and position the mic on axis. It will only cut some junk from 10 kHz and further. The off axis , 7 cm distance, coil respect position if probably my favourite by far. Of course for regular record I would prefer to leave the Low Passing for the mixing stage (I like the mids in-face around 1-3 kHz that works great in the mix but the best balance is related to straight to coil mic position which also gives a lot of junk above 6 kHz. here's audio sample - with foam vs no foam: lpf_experiment.wav ( 8.3MB ) Number of downloads: 126 Foam test screen: Here's another cool (I hope cool tone) made with no post processing (just the mic and it's position...but again it's audio-technica) off_axis_cool_tone.wav ( 11.49MB ) Number of downloads: 131 |
