 talking a little bit more about microphones here at NAMM 2018 and we're here with the guy at Bach audio, Dave Bach. Hi, good to see you. Welcome to a voiceover body shop. Now microphones are very critical in a home voiceover studio. Bach is an extremely well-known name. Tell us a little bit about what you think makes a good voiceover mic and show us some of your models here. Well you want something that gives you more direct sound and less of the room sound because you often are in a less than perfect environment. Our 507 would probably be the the top option for that. It uses an elliptical capsule, which is a unique shape for a capsule. How does that improve its pickup? The idea is that by being an ellipse we've reduced modal resonance in band. Now this is true and it's sort of like combining a very large diaphragm with a very small diaphragm without any of the drawbacks of a very of an excessively large diaphragm so you get tremendous warmth and a lot of clarity. Additionally because of the way the capsules design there isn't too much proximity effect so you're getting a directional microphone that is flatter without having to go to an omni to try to achieve real flatness. Makes sense. Now what's a price point on this large microphone? $7,000. It's a $7,000 microphone but if you want a really good one that's what it is. Now what are some of the other models you have that are a slightly lower price point? If we move over to the other station there we'll next up we have the Bach iFET. It has two amplifiers inside of it so you get yeah and you can switch between the two but one is a higher SPL capable mic amplifier and it's a little more clinical sounding and the other is voice mode which is higher gain a lot friendlier on a voice but you pick okay 2250 it's a traditional k47 capsule so it is a cardioid microphone transformer coupled very useful for close-up. It's very quiet too. Moving over to the 195 also a good voice over microphone because it's not that sensitive you can really get up on top of it and get rid of your room without that much coloration. Right right so so if you get fairly close it's not going to accentuate the low end very much right which is nice if you're whispering or doing a very quiet read something along also a cardioid only microphone this uses a k67 capsule so it never really has too much low end anyway. Right and price point on that one? 1250. 1250. Well Bach has a great name in this business for for great microphones and David we really appreciate you talking to us. Thank you very much for coming over. Alrighty thank you.
