The ribbon mic is way better, but I can honestly say it is not £1500 better, if i was a rock star I would deffo buy the ribbon mic's, but for what I do at home, I can get away with a sm57, e609 & e606, I may be adding a e906 to the collection this week also lol, but I would rather make do with my budget mic's and buy another strat with the £1500 change
-
combination of both sound's great!
-
need to hear it recorded on tspe to decide
-
move the sm57 off the cone alittle and u basicly have the same sound as the royer, 1-2 inches difference of placement saves u 1500 dollars
-
Even when combining them, I think I'd pull the SM57 volume down a bit. I don't suppose you guys have tried a Royer 101 since you shot this video?
-
Royer on its own sounds best, but that's why it's $1600..
-
Royer sound better.Sm57 very bright.
-
I prefer the royer on it's own, but that's why it's costs a fortune, I own a 57 and hate it
-
Well for the price...of course Shure wins...
-
I would use both.
No EQ direct into Mbox. Otherwise adding EQ would defeat the whole point.
