Don’t want to jinx it - knock on wood and all - but this one seems to be a perfect match.
I left them on to warm up properly and the only differences I can find can be calked up to preamp level difference where you might need to move a fader pot up tiny fraction to match w/ the other channel. They even look the same in the scope plugins
I’ve already had to return two of these from other sellers over the years so didn’t have high hopes but will be extremely pleased if this works out.
Any idea how long you can run a tube mic safely? In normal operation I have no qualms with turning on a tube mic power supply when I power up everything else and not turning it off until the end of the night (or when I’m done recording).
Maybe I’m just used to the sound but I love these mics. They also work right up on an amp. Give me a pair of these and a couple C38Bs and I can record 90% of what I want to do. Everything else can be handled by a ribbon, dynamic, or sdc, but I feel like the condensers are better all-arounders, if not always the perfect choice (for my tastes at least).
