mic comparison..CELLO!!! ribbon vs. LDC

[LSD-Studio]

just recording a Cello...
here are two different mics, simial position

beyerdynamic m160

AKG c414


I'm digging both..the 414 has this nice "breathing", and the m160 the warmth I adore.
both are giving me goosebumps

don't need you to rate or so...just thought you might enjoy




....
of course....no EQ or post-processing

The 414 is my favorite. Pretty good playing too.

yeah, I fricking love her cello as well...expensive as fuck, but it sounds somewhat like a living creature

 

[KeithTidd]

the ribbon is alittle too dark.

That's the story of String Instrument's lives.

Every time I hear Itzhak's violining, I get scared.

I like the brightness of the LDC, but I think if you brightened the ribbon track just a bit, I would like it better than the LDC.

I know you aren't asking for opinions though!
