It’s a Soyuz 1973

Thanks Ira. I do dig this mic. You can catch the Hulatones on the road this summer, opening up for Can of Worms on the Lallapaloogie tour.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff Awesome !!

Where can I contact you?

Very flattered, but these mics are all experimental and not for sale.

It’s really making me reexamine the myth of the expensive mic.

That’s amazing. I believe it. Those mics are insanely engineered.

Would be interesting, but I do not have a Dachman.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff would be cool to see you get your hands on one.. then shoot it out with one of your sweet u87 DIYs

You're very welcome!

That’s a different show.

Crazy, right? How can it? I’ve come to see the BFL capsule as pretty legit and as far as that transformer goes, it’s wild when the price of stuff on Ali sometimes reflects just how much markup we are used to paying in the Western world.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff insane in the membrane.

@@TheRecordist 😂

He has not lost one ounce of that JP energy. That's for sure!

You're very welcome. Absolutely 100 percent blown away by this magical thing you created.

Chef Jean-Pierre is true a force of nature.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff indeed!

He honestly hasn't changed at all. He's the real deal.

So good!

The best place to start as a beginner is to find a project at MicParts.com

Isn't it totally wild?

Not even Arduino. It's 100% through-hole components. ; ) (I don't solder anywhere NEAR well enough to play around with SMT.) 😜

It's the prototype of one of my shockmount designs that I'm tinkering with. You can see more here: ua-cam.com/video/0imBukJLXzw/v-deo.html

My pleasure! You had me at “David Bock”.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff Wait until you hear these! We cannot contain out excitement!

Thank you! It has a nice smoothess through the 4-7k range that gives it more sense of detail and that really works here. It's the sum of pairing the right parts through a copious amount of trial and error, but this is a formula of transformer, capsule and circuit that can be repeated so I'm very stoked. Glad you dig it!

M49 body would be really nice. A lot more room inside the body to fit an even bigger transformer. We’ve been using these Aliexpress 103 style bodies that are 1/10th the price of that m49 though. It’s a whole mic but the guts a And capsule are crap so you just empty out the body (and you may need a capsule mount) but Duffy designed the boards to squeeze into one of these. a.aliexpress.com/_mOgraDm

The easiest way may be to buy a used Nova or Sterling st51 from eBay.

Yeah, would be cool, but UA is such a shitty company with no direction that it’ll never happen.

Or is the question, how much would you pay?

Thank you very much. This part of my life was so long ago,, but I'm very happy to share it with you.

Thank you! And absolutely! I totally agree. Creativity has to be a challenge, or it's just ordinary. The mic in this video is a different one. This one is the "Butterstick", a 47-style body with a 3u Audio M7 capsule and Mic Parts T84 circuit.

Glad I could help!

Bummer. Tube mics are hard to use for most VO because of higher self noise. It’s a shame, really.

This is the disguise I wear when I rob banks. Though, I probably shouldn’t say that out loud.

With that midrange. I totally believe it.

That's a great question. I kinda think the stock Felio capsule in the Nova may actually be a better capsule than the BFL. It's a pretty good one, so you probably won't gain anything by swapping.

Right? It's the timbales in there that does it. Back then, Miami Sound Machine was truly the embodiment of the "sound of Miami" and broke the Miami sound of that era all over the world, so I can totally see that. Gloria's husband Emilio was a fixture on the Miami arts scene and it's kind of one of those things where he was influenced by the local culture that, he in turn, influenced back to the popular culture of the day. Miami Vice, of course, and the overall vibrancy of the look they gave the city on that show was tremendously influential in how every production coming out of South Florida was shot as well.

There's that "hint" in the music. Like any good cook it's seasoned to taste.

Fantastic mic now, isn’t it? Just crazy that AKG never realized the hidden gem that this mic is.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff definitely an excellent mod, cheap, easy, and huge difference. Picks up that growl in your voice. Also seems like a pretty tight cardoid too.

Great point. Absolutely yes.

Yes

🤣🤣

Thank you. I can’t believe I abandoned this mic. And yeah, I was hoping someone would comment on the silly songs. Anything for a laugh.

I have only used the 25mm version. I’m not a fan of the compromised midrange sound of k67 style capsules on flat, transformerless circuits.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff Thank you, Mark! That's an important range! I'll get the 25mm! All the best and thanks for covering these in your channel!

Thanks! I’m very happy with how it sounds.

That is really excellent! Definitely a contender.

It tripled the production budget for this week.

@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff Haha😂😂 I have T-12 and T-47 and I have some plan to make them same mic with GZT-84 and flat K-87 inspired by this vid. Thanks always!

Yeah man! Gotta jank test your sound on a regular basis. Like the old days of taking your mix out to the car on cassette tape to check it on crap car speakers.

I couldn't be more thrilled with your comment and I couldn't agree more that it's a Grammy-nomination worthy album. Regardless of whose mics were used, I certainly hope this music gets the recognition it truly deserves.

Hah! They should put me in charge of marketing.

I'd rather use an Iphone speaker for reference than Auratones.

Thanks Dean! Appreciated!

The only question to ask when listening in a phone speaker is whether it sounds good or not. The end listener does not care what gear you use. It’s about listening as a consumer.
