[LianneNicoleOfficial]

what kind of microphone are u using?

[MGstatuettes]

@LianneNicoleOfficial The microphone company is called "Blue". I'm not sure of the exact model, because I don't actually own it. I borrowed it from a friend. I bet you could find it pretty easily on their website.

[LianneNicoleOfficial]

@MGstatuettes thanks bro

[CassandraFeltz]

@MGstatuettes Thats Blue's Kiwi Mic

[CastellaMusic]

@MGstatuettes

it's a bluebird mic ;) just search and you'll find the model

[MrLoui318]

@MGstatuettes well i cant tell what color it is in the video but to me it looks green and if it is that's the the blue kiwi a $2000 mic....now if it was black that's the blue baby bottle its like $400 but the quality I'm hearing i would have to guess its the kiwi!

[DajMilique]

@LianneNicoleOfficial He's using a Blue Bottle Class A Tube Microphone

[SmakDofficial]

@LianneNicoleOfficial i can answer your question, it looks like to me a bluebird.

[OrionSimm]

What interface do you use? Does a good interface create a better recorded sound? Whats an interface first of all? haha

[MGstatuettes]

@OrionSimm The recording software we were using is called Reaper. We put most things through an external pre-amp as well. I'm not sure of the type of pre-amp it was. It's not mine.

[OrionSimm]

@MGstatuettes Thanks!

[MOOKIEMUZIC]

Can you tell me which shure headphones those are?

thanks.

[MGstatuettes]

@MOOKIEMUZIC I don't remember. They aren't mine. Sorry.

[MrLoui318]

[studiov2]

Where'd you get that WASHER at? LOL JK bro. Great vocals, and haven't checked out the music yet, but looking forward to it. Are you using any compressor/gate hardware or EQ? Or is that one mic preamp with an all-in-one feature? Great stuff!! Gonna watch it again.

[SazzieChan]

What mic is it you use? I'd really like to know.

[himl994]

How are the preamps of the saffire 6?

[StefanoLombardoFan]

it's a rohen mic preamp

[MinesR34]

When you record on this mic, does it sound exactly like you? Cuz some mics are just fucked up lol. doesnt sound like u when u record it.

[MGstatuettes]

@MinesR34 It should sound just like you unless you put effects or something on it.

[MinesR34]

@MGstatuettes how much did u get the amp filter for?

[CustodioRichmond]

how did u make urs sound so clear? mines to sensitive that its kinda scratchy

[MGstatuettes]

@CustodioRichmond It's probably the preamp, and the EQ settings

[tinoataahuamonster]

he sounds like James off American Idol

[GangstaLean18]

Hey Man NIce SOng What Kind of recording software do you use?

[MGstatuettes]

@GangstaLean18 Thanks man. We used "reaper" for this album

[MGstatuettes]

@danielolaf87 You know it!

[danielolaf87]

@MGstatuettes that's 'cause i'm saving up to get one next year. hehe ;)

[theswish123able]

@MGstatuettes what kind of microphone is that? do you think it'd be good for rapping.

[StarChildGME]

@theswish123able That is the Kiwi by Blue Microphones. This mic runs for about $400 and it's a pretty good all around mic, if you are looking to record R&B and Hip Hop, I'd suggest you check out the Bluebird by Blue Microphones running around $300.
