I have heard several Mid Side recording using 414 and 451...that gives just such a solid acoustic guitar representation. Or at least, I think so.Here is one from the Australian Based Acoustic dealer using these two in combination. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ruztmWgY4M |

My son uses an AKG 414 for vocals and has done some wonderful sounding recordings with it. It does pick up a lot of the room, so he uses it mostly in a closet where he has arranged his clothes to make it into a sound booth.
I second what others have said about the AT4050 being a wonderful vocal mic. |

Just for you guys know: I have decided to go with a Neumann u87ai for vocals and a pair of KM184. I am using them in this live recording of Right Here Waiting, from Richard Marx.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7H77Kw65Lpw The KM184 are in ORTF, and even with a bad room, with minimal treatment, I liked the results. I need to work on my mixing skills and room treatment for a better and cleaner results.

I've posted a quite a few things on Youtube myself using that exact combo. I really like it. The Austrian Audio's due output would allow, I think anyway, to have those two side tracks to their own separate stereo track to perhaps process differently with reverb etc in a convenient way.

It certainly sounds good. The Neumann u87ai complements your voice well and the recording sounds good in that room. |

I love my plastic ringed 414s and even my later b/uls version...but there are far too many great options to be putting up with these kinds of issues.

RE: The Talents of Rodrigo Pandelo
Aloha Friends,
I've been coming to the 'RECORD' forum at AGF for some 20 years. We talk passionately here about gear (or treatment - Ha!), getting deeply at times into the minutiae & complexities of topics like DAW recording, mic options & opinions, or affording complementary signal chains. That's fine for a great "gear site" where most of the participants are mature veteran players. And man, we sure do love a well-played & well-recorded solo guitar instrumental. When old friends like Doug, Eric, Anton or Derek share a solo piece here with us it is always a wonderful experience. And we listen & learn. And appreciate. But this fellow Rodrigo Pandelo is sharing some very serious talent here, especially his outstanding vocals. He has some real gifts, friends. And he just got started a couple years back. I hope we can appreciate it as much as solo guitar pieces. Rodrigo takes love songs like this Richard Marx classic, adds his own brand of feelings, & truly makes the songs he plays come alive, & truly become his own. What's even more amazing is that even though Rodrigo sings & speaks English well, Brazilian Portuguese is his native tongue. That's where you can really hear the nuances & passion in this young man's music, friends. It is great that Rodrigo has been able to quickly transition to some world-class mic's, especially that very smooth U87ai. I feel that his talent deserves it. He seems to be working progressively on treating his space & planning, assembling & mastering his live & studio recording chains very effectively for this stage of his career. And he's a regular gigger. Finally, I just wanted to make sure that Rodrigo Pandelo hears from at least one former gear-head here that his talent is greatly respected & appreciated. I hope he goes as far as he can as a performer. Listening to his music, he sure seems like a great guy. His music inspires. Rodrigo is a great addition to the 'RECORD' forum. And a real talent. Here is Rodrigo from his youtube channel, in his native language, "Sem Radar." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Yl48-7T0yg A Hui Hou! alohachris Last edited by alohachris; 10-24-2020 at 10:27 PM. |

I am trully glad to read great feedbacks from my good friend Chris, Doug, Rockabilly and lkingston. It really is. I am new to all of this recording and mixing world, and it is really nice to hear that I'm going in a good direction.
Thank you... really! I went from a AT2035 to record my acoustic to a pair of KM184. The ballance is huge! I used the ORTF method, and I really liked it! I might try the vertical XY method, also. I heard a recording made that way and it sounded sooooo balanced for my ears. It might be the mixing skills of the engineer, as well... I might try that out. Has anyone here tested that XY Vertical? And do you guys think it might be nice to try a little spaced pair (around 20 centimeters, maybe 30) in vertical, also. Just to have a little more space in the stereo image. It might be interesting... maybe a little less string articulation, but I could work to get at least one of the mics to get a little of that!
