El Diablo

Video of the creation process for the song "El Diablo" by Sean Eldon.

The only mic used to record the song was the new Crowley & Tripp El Diablo (the newest member of the Mercenary Edition family,) ribbon mic, save for the snare, which was a Mercenary modded SM57 with a TAB-Funkenwerk output transformer, and spaced stereo pair of prototype Mercenary mics (yes, Mercenary mics) very similar to the vaunted KM84 on overhead duty.

A pretty funny and excellent undertaking to sell a mic.

Cool song. The way the instruments are mixed together does not sound very professional but I really like the singing and the players. You should go to LA and record. I think you are really good and it would sound awesome.
