If you’ve been watching the channel or listening to the podcast, you probably know that I’m a BIG fan of the JZ Amethyst condenser microphone.
This is my main mic on videos and on the podcast, because I absolutely love the sound and look. It’s big, bold, detailed, thick and detailed all at once.
I just did a special livestream about this mic, why I chose it as my main mic for videos, and where I do (and don’t) like to use it in recording sessions.
I’ve got a whole bunch of audio clips for you where we can compare mics and mic placements together, so you can get a sense for how this mic compares—and how best to mic a wide variety of instruments.
I’m doing all this in part because the next batch of handmade Amethysts is being made RIGHT NOW, and they are on a pre-sale special for an absurdly low price to reserve yours before they sell out!
Big thanks to JZ for being longtime sponsors of this channel. Check out the Amethyst presale here.
They’ve also helped me create a totally FREE full length course on mic techniques, called Mic Technique Mastery, which you can get here.
See you there!
