  • I recently discovered a microphone company that makes Neumann-inspired clones. If you are looking for really nice microphones on a budget you should check out GoToToolz.
    If you want to find out more about GoToToolz check out www.gototoolz.com
    The first mic I checked out was the GTZ 103. It's a clone of the Neumann TLM 103 but 1/10th the price.
    The second affordable microphone I checked out is a replica of a Neumann U47 FET called the GTZ 47.
    Also know, that I am not sponsored by any product in this video. I paid for these mics with my own money.

    I bought gtz105. It’s not the same to Neumann thing, but still a great option. $150 well spent. Thank you for this review.

      Yeah I totally agree. Since I made this video I’ve spent more time with these 103s. I like them for dialog a lot and I didn’t mind them for drum overheads

    The 47 sounds so good in your recording. Very smooth. What was your chain from interface to mic on it because I’m pretty much sold on getting one.

    What do you think about a GTZ-7, I want a good dynamic mic. I assume its a Shure MV7 clone?!

    So, the 47 is a Tube mic? or Fet? or neither?

    • @nickiden
      @nickiden  5 месяцев назад +4

      The one I picked up is a FET. They do make a tubed one as well I believe.

      So there’s a story about that tilt. Years ago when I did the desk build I messed up the angle on one of my cuts. But I used that messed up angle on both monitor ends so both my Yamahas are tilted. I’m use to it now but it is an interesting discussion piece

    Honestly they look and sound like those cheap Aliexpress/Temu mics. Not sure if he changed the internals but doesn't sound like it's changed that much. I got one of the Temu U87 clones for fun didn't think it'll arrive, but it eventually came and it sounds and looks very similar to what you have. Those mics seriously lacking some low end, but for under $50 on Temu, it's a very usable mic for video/conference calls.

    • @nickiden
      @nickiden  9 месяцев назад +2

      Yeah, 103’s I used in the video don’t have much in the low end for sure. I’ve seen the Temu mics but haven’t tried them yet. The gtz47 was much better with capturing low end which is much pretty good :D

      @@nickiden yea it'll be interesting to compare. I'm all for affordable mic options for consumers, but if it's just importing them from China and rebranding them. it is just a bit of a scam... however, if people like them and are willing to pay for them, who am I to judge.

      I know that the GTZ87 uses that same chinese circuit, as I have both and the components and board are the exact same.

      ​@@jonathanlegaspi8288 good to know because in reality, and U87 and TLM103 are wildly different. I've used both real, new AND vintage Neumanns and that's appalling that they're selling both "clones" with the same circuit.

  • @Jordan-rb28
    @Jordan-rb28 4 месяца назад

    How did you "accidentally" throw away that frequency response chart that you liked so much? Seems like thats something youd go out of your way to keep to show for the video. Just tell us they sponsored you or sent you the microphones for free. I can hardly trust your credibility.

    • @nickiden
      @nickiden  4 месяца назад +5

      Haha that’s harsh. Yeah it was a small slip that got mixed in with the packaging. I think if you’re interested in the chart it’s on their webpage. No I am not sponsored sorry
