The turtlerock forum :: view topic - akg c12vr 2 x u87's dodgy? Hey how legit do you think these are? at the moment a c12vr going for under aus$1000 in melbourne with 1 day to go and 2 x ''vintage'' neumann u87's for less then $2000 from the same guy. http://cgi.Ebay.Com.Au/ws/ebayisapi.Dll?viewitem&item=220451262972&viewitem=&sspagename=strk%3amewax%3ait&salenotsupported http://cgi.Ebay.Com.Au/ws/ebayisapi.Dll?viewitem&item=220451257757&viewitem=&sspagename=strk%3amewax%3ait&salenotsupported...

Akg c 414 or neuman u87? - i agree wit kurt foster mickael. the c12vr sounds great with the 737 but it does cost you around 3 to 5 grand on ebay brand new. i have the 414 myself and go to my partners house where he has the 737 and u87 and my opinion i lik The price does what? the price of a c-12 vr isn't 1/3rd the price of a ''real'' c-12... But i reckon you do indeed get what you pay for so that makes sense.... Forum: recording.org - From: maintiger - Date: thu feb 10, 2005 2:02 pm

Akg c 414 or neuman u87? - [quote:40760ba6b9]c12vr into an avalon 737[/quote:40760ba6b9] there's usher's chain of choice if i'm not mistaken. Mic modelling doesn't really work very well, other than to give a different colout to the mics that you already have. You won't get a u87 from a c414. i love the u87 and avalon combination for pop vocals, although i... Forum: recording.org - From: mickael - Date: mon feb 07, 2005 10:54 pm

Anyone tried the mxl v69? - i stand corrected but they do have more than one mic wired with mogami. not sure where to get one used but from what i've read i'd like to try one. If i'm thinking of the right mic its kind of a look alike to the akg c12vr. its not mxl's flagship mic and in fact i think it retailed for like 99 bucks. never heard it but i...

What preamp-mic couple for urban music - kurt if i may jump in here... i'm a little confused about the c12 capsule in the 414. i've read elsewhere that the earlier 414s are the only ones worth using for anyone who likes the c12. on the other hand akg Welcome to ro ! i'm not sure if it's in the budget constraints ... Avalon 737 and the c12vr are the standard ... Manley refernce ld mic is an alternitive ... An akg 414 (the version with the c12 capsule)...
