Chandler TG Microphone Review
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2024
- We put the new Chandler TG Microphone through its paces and go through a lot the different settings. All recording was done with an AEA TRP preamp to impart minimal coloration to the signal.
Full session files can be downloaded at the link below. If you use ProTools, all the settings are labeled and playlisted on each track. If you're not using ProTools, all files are labeled and located in the "audio" folder.

Thanks for such a good comprehensive demonstration of the mic. I loved also that on your vocal the line "I've got a feeling the best is yet to come" your dog wandered in. Perfect timing, That dog is a star 🙂🙂
a trick: watch movies on Flixzone. Me and my gf have been using it for watching a lot of movies during the lockdown.
@Kase Mekhi Yea, been watching on Flixzone for months myself :D
Hey man, great review. I've been following this mic since they announced it and this may be the best video I've seen so far that gives me a really good idea of what those initial tone adjustments do on the mic, especially in the sense of largeness that settings 1, 4 and 5 impart on the flat signal. I saw your post on GS and the amount of work it took to do this so, my hat's off to you. Very, very nice job.
Thanks! If you have time, download the session files I put in the link and go through everything, it will be a lot more helpful than the video!
@@MillSounds Ya , thanks dude. Great video. I've also been considering this mic, maybe even a pair for drums and sterio stuff:)
@ The Microphone Assassin - This right up your alley! Did you ever get to try it?
@@ndavies8 Thanks for asking. Yes,I did. I had it for about a year then sold it. Unfortunately, it didn't really work out as a VO mic. I found it to be too sibilant on me. I think it's a mic that isn't really designed to close mic voices and is better suited at a distance. If I was still doing music, I would have kept it.
@@MarkYoshimotoNemcoff I'm starting to think this Mic is not as forgiving in vocal booths versus an open space, if it catches any slight resonance and the mic's already in say System A EQ 2 it will sound very bright and harsh. It needs a big enough space.
Great review, and even better video production. Love that you keep everything moving and concise!
Hopefully it was helpful!
Very nice run through on this mic! I like that it was a really nice song, and you edited the video in a really concise way. So many other reviewers do too much stopping and starting, and too much yap yap talking in between takes! High quality stuff here, and your studio looks really cozy and nice!
Thanks! I'm trying to talk less, I'm guilty of that as well!
Great walk-through .. which confirms what we all came here to see .. we need one! .. OR TWO! Ha ha .. Thanks for putting this together.
_PAW-iano ftw!!_
Nice viddy, w/ an excellent intro and examples highlighting the (very effective) circuit switching. :)
This thing was a ninja on that kit - it seems a fine candidate for 117x / distressor parallel-crush duties, in addition to what everyone seems to be using it for (guitar cab).
Perhaps I'm being a bit optimistic, but It also seems to bring a rather strident presence without being as harsh as most less-expensive LDCs are; which could help to flatter my (often too-)mushy bass-baritone.
I don't like brighter microphones (usually), but the TG has a way of bringing a lot of presence and air without the harshness. It does need a little more distance on most sources, so you need a decent room to make the best of it.
Thanks for sharing your wisdom!! Great video.
Nice guitar! Nice Mic!! Thanks for the review!
Thanks for making video!
Amazing mic absolutely amazing
Thank you! What a beautiful mic.
Thank you so much for a really great review!
Impressive review!! Thanks!!
Thanks Murray, hope it was helpful!
Maybe its just me man, but setting 5 on system A on Vocals sounds like a dam finished record. Thanks for your review brother. I just bought a TG, it should be here in the next few days God willing. That mic sounds absolutely amazing on you.
Be careful on setting 5 for vocals, you need a good singer (Not that I'm a good singer, but I had to be very conscious about not putting out too much air on that setting). If you have a booth or a smaller/deader room, setting 5 can sound great but really needs some space. If you can back it off the singer more than a foot and not have too much room sound, it sounds excellent. Most of the singers I've tried to close mic on setting 4 or 5 were too aggressive.
Congrats on the mic, it's a great deal for the money!
@@MillSounds Thanks for the insight brother. The TG is for me and my vocals being recorded in my home studio. So ill definitely heed your advice.
@@MillSounds This page has my videos on it man. Ill put some more up once i get my TG
@@MusicByKhalilTV Were you able to grab a TG yet?
@@MillSounds yes i did, it sounds amazing
System A Setting 5 on everything 💜
"Too much of a good thing" can be a problem on that setting sometimes, haha. It's addicting!
Love the setting 5, could work with a super dry ”mac miller” vocal sound
Would love to see more demo's of this mic!!
Is there anything in here that I didn't cover that you're curious about?
Hey brother. I actually realized since asking you that question that you mentioned you had files for download that go more in depth. It was basically just System B I was curious about. But hey good news, I actually just bought one..Woooo Hoooo. So exited.
Very nice video! Thanks. Where can I find the song? Sounds amazing
I don't think I ever finished that song, much less released it 🤣
@@MillSounds ah! Well, thanks for the video. I’m going to safe some money for this mic because of this perfect review. Love your work.
@@fieldsstudiobest review
Do you know how much noise have the mic? Or a approximate? Great video!!!👏👏👏👏👏
The dog looked so embarrassed lol
Poor guy, he puts up with a LOT of my crap...
thanks for vid. also, your snare sounds incredible. what is it?
It's a 60's Ludwig marching snare, 15x12. I've got a Big Fat Snare Drum Donut head on top to get a deader sound. It kills resonance enough to where you can tune the snare wires really loose and still have them level out and shut up pretty quickly. It's really helpful when I do minimal mic'ing stuff like that where I might not have a mic under the snare drum. You hear the wires rattling, but it's still somewhat controlled.
setting 2 is a treble boost I though
It sounds like a treble boost to me as well, it's definitely "brighter". Chandler described it to me as actually taking away mid range and low end to give the perception that it's brighter. More of a "subtractive" approach than an additive one. With out a doubt a brighter setting though!
Was this in omni?
I think everything was Cardioid.
