Comments
I would appreciate a primer on EQ
Thanks so much for sharing your insights.
Robert
Thank you for your thorough response. Your comments are very helpful.
I am thinking that to get the most out of the 103, I need to understand EQ and maybe compression a better, rather than trying to buy more expensive mics.
But let me ask you, when you finally got the U87 was it worth it?
Thanks again for taking the time to answer Alexis and I really appreciate it.
Rob
FYI, I just bought a Studio Projects CS5 for about $325, and so far I'm loving it. Another talent I respect says that he recently recorded on a CS5 from his home studio to update a tag he recorded for Disney, and it perfectly matched the U87 that was originally used. I also am getting in a Mike Joly-modded MXL 909 any day now that I am very curious to check out.
Anyhow, thanks for your reply, Mike! It definitely was not too late.
All the best,
Tom Test
How do you like your Rode NTG-3 vs the 416? I'm in the market for something like this. (Already have a TLM-103, Rode NTK w Amperex NOS tube and Shure SM-7B). I'd love to hear your thoughts.
All the best,
Tom Test
I trust the Voiceover Universe experience has been good for you!
Also, I hope you'll check out and join a new group that we just started called MARKETING FOR FUN AND PROFIT. It's a group dedicated to discussing ways we can market ourselves - what works; what doesn't. With your experience, you would be a tremendous resource!
Thanks for your time! I trust our paths will cross soon!
Best to ya!

I saw that you were offering to sell your 416 and ship it in your NTG-3 case. How do the two mics compare for voiceover?
