Slate Digital ML-1 Matte Black

Voor verschillende klanten werkt het altijd goed als mic zelfs zonder de software 'maskers' op te zetten. Ik hoef het alleen voor hun neus te plaatsen en ik krijg een hele goede geluid wat minder bewerking nodig heeft daarna.

Bovendien heb ik alle mic sets gekocht en kan zeggen dat het mijn oren een les heeft gegeven in de subtiliteit tussen de klassieke mics. Geweldig om de gevoel bij het liedje aan te kunnen passen.

Ik was wel skeptisch toen ik het eerste hadden maar het heeft zich duidelijk laten bewijzen.

Ik ben al jaren blij geweest met mijn Studio Projects TB-1 buizen mic, maar deze rust nu zachtjes in zijn doos, voor wanneer ik een tweede mic nodig heb.

I was very skeptical of the Slate virtual anything, but after much research and reading decided to take a chance on the ML-1. Upon reception, I immediately put it to use in a complex session with huge stacks of vocals-- some instances up to 25 layered individual takes! Man, was I surprised with the result... The use case is clearly for the (advanced) studio musician / producer / recorder in the sense that you record "dry" vocals and can then switch between the mic emulations. While the original mike can have a tad of harshness in the top end, the models and of course use of further channel strips (EQ, comp, etc.) really make this a beautifully transparent, moldable and dynamic tool for vocal recording and production. The fact that I can run a lead stack through one mic, and backup / choir stacks through other mic models is really refreshing and provides tremendous opportunities for streamlining and accelerating my workflow. But he proof is in the hearing of the first recording: people hearing the song, a "welcome" lullaby for our first baby son, were deeply impressed and emoted, and could not believe I had recorded these lush vocal arrangements with my own voice! Since then, besides an SM7B and SM-7 for vocoder / dynamic mic work, all my other complex mic work whether it be acoustic guitar, vocals, and even certain types of percussion have consistely and accurately tracked with this baby. A while later, I also added the VSX and man, again was I blown away: I got all I need to record and monitor for a fraction of what any other professional alternative would cost! Thanks Steven and team!
