Here's a video comparing the microphone AT5045 to KM184, R10 and 545D on an electric guitar amp. This uses the AT5045 as a large diaphragm condenser so all of the most common categories of mics (LDC, pencil, dynamic and ribbon) are represented. All mics were placed at the same time so there was no difference from multiple takes. All microphones were plugged directly into a Steinberg UR44C and no effects or filters were applied to them. Volume levels were adjusted after the session to make them as similar as possible without using compression. The guitar used was a frankenstrat with two splittable humbuckers, directly into a 15 watt tube amp with a single 12" speaker.
No stock photos were used. No music was covered. All content is original. All products mentioned are for transparency purposes, this was not a sponsored video. It was also offered without judgement on which microphone was best for which application. All microphones were purchased by me with my own money, with the exception of the AT5045, which was borrowed, but not from a retailer or manufacturer.
Thanks for watching and hope you enjoyed the video!
