The MXL 990 remains one of the industry's most ground-breaking microphones. The first high quality condenser microphone to come into reach of working musicians, the MXL 990 has a FET preamp and a large diaphragm for truly professional sound quality in both digital and analog recordings.

 So I wanted to do this simple with no processing what's over, so you get to hear the true sound of the MXL 990, and so it takes the pressure off needing to use your mics that you normally use in your studio that are kept, you know, very protected. So you could throw these outside and not worry about it if the wind gets to it or using it by the ocean. Relatively low risk. If something happens to it, you could easily replace it

 I'm not in a treated room, so you're probably hearing a little of the room noise as well, and I'm getting the audio straight into my iPhone and just pressing record, so I have it going into a mixer board, and my mixer board has a USB out. Then the USB is just going into adapter that then is going into my iPhone.

So you could throw these outside and not worry about it if the wind gets to it or using it by the ocean

 So I'm here at my Yamaha C7, where I have the two MXL microphones, one on the treble and one on the bass, and it's going into my 15 year old mixer. So the two MXLs are right here, channel one and channel two. Let's try out the piano. So it sounds really great

Why I'm never using my expensive mics again! MXL 990 Review

 For those working out of the home studio spend at least $300 in soundproofing getting good acoustic foam bass traps for the corners to really soundproof your recording space. But that isn't enough! The other must have is a microphone that has low self noise. I happen to know for a fact this microphone has a high self noise rate. If you are someone looking to record audio books or medical narration for example that is a real problem considering those don't have music so you only hear voice and voice only

 This mic does not. A good rule of thumb is if the advertisement for the microphone doesn't mention low self noise the mic likely doesn't have it. For those working out of the home studio spend at least $300 in soundproofing getting good acoustic foam bass traps for the corners to really soundproof your recording space. But that isn't enough!

 I happen to know for a fact this microphone has a high self noise rate. If you are someone looking to record audio books or medical narration for example that is a real problem considering those don't have music so you only hear voice and voice only. Obviously if you are purchasing this microphone to record musical instruments this is not that big of an issue for you. But if you are looking at using this for anything vocal voice do not buy it - spend the extra money and buy a $300 or more microphone that has low self noise - the lost jobs will total way more then the price difference

High self noise

You simply cannot beat the value of this mic. Not a high end mic, but very usable for just about any home studio. I am very pleased with the mic and will check out MXL for more deals. Guitar center has great service too

Amazing mic for the money x3

 I guess that bar is getting just continually a little bit higher. But despite the somewhat nitpicky nature of this review, I do want to start off by saying, this is a very good mic. I think it's better than 90% of the offerings in this price range, and I prefer it to many of the competitors like the AT2020 or the Samson C01, maybe the Behringer B1. So bear that in mind, while I am pretty critical of this microphone, I think it's more based on the fact that I've seen so many glowing reviews of this mic

 That's the thing I wanted to do with this review. I saw so many reviews of this microphone just talking about how it's the perfect alternative to even more expensive microphones, and I just don't think that's true. It's a more honest review of this microphone. It's a more critical review of this microphone, but it's still a good microphone

 When we look at the 103 frequency response, we see this dead flat sort of plateau in the high end. In my opinion, this dead straight shelf, when combined with a really beautiful flat control of the mid-range, that's kind of the Neumann tone if you could dilute it down to a frequency response curve. In this aspect, the MXL990 begins to fall short, so the presence boost is noticeably less shelf-like, meaning there isn't this sort of consistent, almost compressive quality to the high end. It's sort of what you would expect from a mildly bright, mildly mid-range focused microphone

 Perhaps one of the reasons that this microphone is held in such high regard are its subtle allusions to a microphone much more expensive than itself, that being the Neumann TLM103. The silver, greenish, champagne hue of this microphone harkens back to vintage Neumanns. Its form factor is very reminiscent of a TLM103, and it's not uncommon to see in the comments, or in the Discord, which you should go join, that this is the budget TLM103. You know, in this microphone's marketing, when you go on the website, there's a lot of buzzwords that they like to throw around to make it sound fancy

MXL 990 - This Mic is a Bit Overrated (Budget Microphone Review)

powerreviews

The U 87 has been the standard of the recording industry since 1967. This microphone is famous for its warm sound and well-balanced characteristics. The current U 87A yields a 6dB improvement in signal-to-noise over its predecessor. Includes EA87 Shockmount, windscreen, cable and a wooden jewelers box. The Neumann U87 studio Microphone is famous for its warm sound and well-balanced characteristics. Equipped with a large dual-diaphragm capsule with 3 selectable directional patterns: omnidirectional, cardioid, and figure-8, it offers a 6dB improvement in signal-to-noise over its predecessor. A 10dB attenuation switch enables the U87 to handle sound levels up to 127dB without distortion; and the low frequency response can be reduced to compensate for proximity effect. The preferred studio vocal mic for decades, the Neumann U87 also makes a great main mic for band or home studio recordings, as well as a spot mic for single instruments. Frequency range: 20Hz to 20kHz; impedance rated at 200 ohms. The Shockmount includes a windscreen, cable, EA87 elastic suspension and comes in a wooden jeweler's box. Requires phantom power.

 I do tend to record sort of hot. I've got the gain at 45 dB right now, and I haven't boosted it at all in post, as I said. But the sensitivity on this thing is out of control. What that means is here in the cloistered studio environment, you are not going to find a better option for replicating every last detail and element of your vocal performance

 And that's a down payment on a car. But when you're thinking about serious high-end recording, maybe you think to yourself, well, I drive a car every day because if I'm going to drive a car every day, I want that to be a car that runs beautifully and is perfectly tuned and is going to be useful regardless of the driving conditions that I'm in. And if I'm going to be using it every day, it's going to be worth that initial outlay of money. So if you work in recording, maybe you want a microphone that fulfills a lot of those same characteristics

 This is the Avedis MA-5 that I am using. We're going line into a sound devices mix pre 6, which means we're not getting any sound devices tonality in the signal. It's just basically working as an analog to digital converter. When you record with the U87 in these very ideal circumstances, as you can hear, I hope you will agree, it sounds great

 So ends my first video on this channel. I am planning to do more of these. I've got a bunch of other microphones to make little sample videos of for you. And I've also got a number of analog preamps, which if you are interested in how these microphones and these preamps can work together to record really nice spoken word audio for radio and podcast, I am excited to share my observations on those processes with you

The Holy Grail? Neumann U87 Ai User Review

Example, you can take the Neumann u87 and re-create the same signal with an Eq for the NT1 and it’ll sound very, very close to the actual Neumann U87. It’s a very versatile mic, great quality, and won’t KO your wallet.

i’ve had my Rhode microphone for a while now, i have it setup at home, i record vocals with it, often singing/rapping. At the start i noticed the mic was very bright, to the point it’s just too harsh, the mids and the highs are way too sharp.

I have the mic connected to a behringer umc22 (i know this is like the cheapest interface you can buy but i’m working on a budget) and this goes into my laptop, straight into fruity loops.

i used to be able to deal with it, and the person who mixes my tracks also could deal with it. but i’ve used other microphones and the difference within the final track is very noticeable. i’m tempted to buy a new microphone, but first i wanted to post this to see if there was any solutions.

thank you .

Problem with the Rode NT1-A

 This is about 4,500 in Canada. This one's about 500 in Canada. One 10th the price, give or take. Now we have the TechZone Audio Products Stellar X2 versus the Neumann U87 AI

 And here we get to prove that the specs are not the most important thing on a microphone. This is a condenser microphone with the cardioid, omni and figure eight polar patterns. It's 20 Hertz to 20 kilohertz. It has an SPL of 117 DB or 127 DB with the pad enabled

 Smells good, right? It was a thing, and it would perfectly explain the differences. But I don't know about you, I would rather not have that on my mic. I mean, it is a Neumann. It's built like a tank, but you should probably not be rough with it because it's a month's salary for a decent career

 I mean, once again, of course, this is good. There's a reason it's in every studio that's worth its salt, but it does beg another question. Do you need this microphone if you're in voiceover or starting your own studio? No. In fact, I saw a post the other day of actors reading lines for a Disney movie and they were using a Rode NT1

Why is The NEUMANN U87ai The Most Sought After Mic

 Now look at this beautiful thing. Why is your favorite artist's microphone the Norman U87? Let's test it out, man. Let's look at this thing, bro. It's a beautiful microphone, man

 Let's open this next box right here, which is the sock mount. Now this sock mount does feel very sturdy. It feels like it's high quality. You know, there are other cheaper shock mounts that you can put around your microphone, but I don't know what those are right now

 Purchasing from one of those links just really helps support what I'm doing here and if you do decide to purchase something, appreciate it. So let's go ahead and try another preamp that a lot of people like, which is the Avalon 737. Now, I personally don't own this plugin, so what I have to do is go ahead and start a demo. Here we have the gain, the preamp gain right here

 They send this cable with it and that's a great thing to have. You know, when you're spending all this money on a microphone, it comes with extra cables. You know what I'm saying? Personally, I have cables already and here we go. The legendary U87
