  • greg, how gain hungry is this mic? i plan on using it with an Apogee Duet for mobile recording at my rehearsal space but i don't know if i will require a beefier preamp to run this microphone.

  • @sehnsucht77 I think it's pretty standard for gain. Not sure of the amount of dB gain in the Duet though. Perhaps check with Cascade and get their thoughts.

  • This mic/amp rig is really similar to what Buddy Miller has been using with Robert Plant. Really beautiful tones and playing, as always! Thanks for the demo!

  • @mheldo Thanks very much! I love Buddy Miller, he's incredible!!!!!

  • Very nice playing as well! feel free to post some original work, I will be keeping an ear out for you.

  • @Bafre4 Thanks!

  • Great tone, the tyranny with that pre is doing a great job, i will be ordering a Lundahl & a Cinamag to upgrade some ribbons, an astonishing stock passive ribbon i have found is from a company we just got mic's from Recording Tools Germany (Oktava) MRP-01 the transparency is shocking, I am literally in love... with the sound of the MRP-01, i do like the duel short passive Cad on Metal... Hope to do a shoot out on these... soon.

  • any lag w te protools btw, just offhand?

  • wana learn those chord progressions youre playing there. the mic picked up everythiing i mean stuff woulnt have expected like the slight pop whit the pickup selector.

  • Great guitar riffs.

  • You sold me bro!
