Good utility mic.
R
67:49Ron StewartGUEST
They're a large diaphragm, and sort of like an FET-47 is what they're modeling on that, or shooting for.
R
67:58Ron StewartGUEST
But they're a great sounding microphone.

68:01Keith BillickHOST
Yeah, I have one of those too that I'm happy with, and I got it in big part because I heard that J.D. liked it.

Nothing is historically documented as far as their amps here.
J
50:11JustinHOST
Mics were likely EMI's usual Neumann U47, U48s.
J
50:15JustinHOST
They used a lot for vocals, and AKG STC for instruments, but again, nothing is nailed down specifically for this session.
J
50:26JustinHOST
Okay, so now we need to get inside the console.
J
52:29JustinHOST
But you kinda had to commit to that and make sure that's what you wanted.
J
52:33JustinHOST
But, okay, so the microphone choices on this thing is they had a standard period chain for Studio 2 to the Red console at the time for the preamp and EQ and, and then going through the Studer J37.
J
52:47JustinHOST
But I couldn't find the exact microphones on this, but they were likely Neumann U47s, U48s.
J
52:54JustinHOST
That's what they were using in EMI at the time.

It should last for decades.
R
6:14Robert MarshallHOST
So basically, you have a now refreshed cardioid hybrid between a U67 and a U47.
R
6:21Robert MarshallHOST
It's not a U57 because we've seen that too.
R
6:24Robert MarshallHOST
So it's a U half and half.
A
8:35Andrew PetersHOST
Yeah.
R
8:36Robert MarshallHOST
So yeah, you have this like kind of, because we all know that the U67 is famous for the EF86 tube.
R
8:43Robert MarshallHOST
So you have this kind of in between U47, U67 microphone.
A
8:48Andrew PetersHOST
And the interesting thing is the transformer inside the microphone is the same as the ones used for the C12.

Audio FET-47 on the out.
C
16:32Carson BruceHOST
Very
G
16:32Garrett MillerGUEST
nice.
G
16:33Garrett MillerGUEST
It is probably not as good as a real Neumann.
G
16:38Garrett MillerGUEST
FET-47, but it is just for the money.
G
16:41Garrett MillerGUEST
Yeah.
G
16:42Garrett MillerGUEST
Such a good deal.
