Members ido1957 Posted March 17, 2012 Members Share Posted March 17, 2012 Doing some microphone comparisons. The vocal clips are unprocessed - nothing except the raw vocal track. Rode NTK and M-Audio Sputnik. Download here until the April 12... 45MB so it's a big zip file but it's .wav for quality. https://www.yousendit.com/download/M3BtT202a0RwM2tVV01UQw It's a Zip file containing minute long clips...background music and vocal clips...MIC_TEST_ZIP_FILE.zip I recorded them through a mixer (no HPF, Flat EQ, 0 Gain) and interface (gain at 12:00 oclock) and then just through my interface (same gain). The Rode was a tiny bit quieter so I upped the gain (about 10 minutes) to even them out. I recorded the two microphones at the same time. So NTK_1 is same take as SPUTNIK_1 for example... Two different songs about a minute long clips (Intro/Verse/Chorus) I left the intro empty space on them so they will line up if you want to load them n a DAW. HB_MIC_TEST_MUSIC.wav (background music with no vocals) HB_MIC_TEST_NTK_1_U42S.wav (Rode NTK -> Lexicon U42S Interface -> Sonar 6.0) HB_MIC_TEST_NTK_2_U42S.wav (Rode NTK -> Lexicon U42S Interface V2 -> Sonar) HB_MIC_TEST_NTK_3_ALESIS.wav (Rode NTK -> Alesis Multimix 16 USB 2.0 Mixer -> Lexicon U42S Interface -> Sonar) HB_MIC_TEST_SPUTNIK_1_U42S.wav (Sputnik -> Lexicon U42S Interface -> Sonar) HB_MIC_TEST_SPUTNIK_2_U42S.wav (Sputnik -> Lexicon U42S Interface V2 -> Sonar) HB_MIC_TEST_SPUTNIK_3_ALESIS.wav (Sputnik -> Alesis Multimix 16 USB 2.0 Mixer - > Lexicon U42S Interface -> Sonar) Song #2 - Same tests. MMDCT_MIC_TEST_MUSIC.wav MMDCT_MIC_TEST_NTK_1_U42S.wav MMDCT_MIC_TEST_NTK_2_U42S.wav MMDCT_MIC_TEST_NTK_3_ALESIS.wav MMDCT_MIC_TEST_SPUTNIK_1_U42S.wav MMDCT_MIC_TEST_SPUTNIK_2_U42S.wav MMDCT_MIC_TEST_SPUTNIK_3_ALESIS.wav Hope this gives you some idea how each of these sound in case you're considering either (and mixer/interface). I'd be interested to hear your thoughts on these mics.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members ido1957 Posted April 4, 2012 Author Members Share Posted April 4, 2012 Uploaded the zip file again. New link in original post and below: https://www.yousendit.com/download/M3BtT202a0RwM2tVV01UQw I also have a couple of samples of my new pre. - same song clips - HB Sputnik Sample 2 - pre only HB Sputnik Sample 4 - pre + compressor MMDCT Sputnik Sample 2 - pre only MMDCT Sputnik Sample 4 - pre + compressor Same songs - Heartbreaker/Make My Dreams - this set done without a warm up so ignore the crappy singing.... You can drop these into your DAW and they should line up with the music track in the other upload file above in case you want to hear vocals with music. https://www.yousendit.com/download/M3BtT216Rnc5eFZwdmNUQw These files expire April 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
