That is the best guitar recording you've posted!
I told you it was a good mic. Now try it with just the Revelation. If you want stereo just arm two tracks in Sonar for the Revelation channel and just pan them left and right. Tell me what you think.

yep there it is, no need for the V69! You've got a nice little collection of mics with those two Neumann TLM102s and the Revelation. Now go make some music You're really going to love the Revelation as a vocal microphone too, but make sure to use a good pop filter as it's a single basket design and prone to pops if used really close up.

Yep, the Revelation is officially the best sounding mic I have. I won't have time till this weekend to make any music though....just really busy, I was lucky to get this recording done....considering there's no EQ on this recording I'm very impressed. I do have it running thru the ART compressor and pre-amp, which only helps it. but still, it's basically a raw recording. Sounds great to me.

For those of you who don't recognize the tune, it's an old song from the 70's called "4+20" by Stephen Stills. It uses an open tuning...EBEEBE.

After about a 1,000 sound checks to work the bugs out of my system, I ended up with this vocal test of the Revelation. It's the words to the above "4+20" song.

Here's a mixed and mastered sample of the Revelation mic. It's the same recording as above just processed.....it shows what can be done with the raw recording....for better or worse....
