So I was booked to record some stuff in a big church. I’d been looking for an excuse to try some Blumlein recording for a while, so I bought some t.bone Ribbon mic’s from @thomann.music

That recording got postponed until September(watch this space), but I had some other bookings in the diary to use them at.

Here is an unboxing, a few wee tests and then the results of using them in the field to record a live singer songwriter session with @antonodonnellatc at @theoldtollbarglasgow. For those of a non-Glaswegian persuasion, that’s Gerry Rafferty and Billy Connolly behind him. The mural is by @rogueoner

The Ribbon mic is perfect for capturing the woody tones of acoustic guitars. In this case it’s a @martinguitar D-15m.

For the vocals I used a @rodemic NTK valve Microphone.

Both microphones went into the @soundperformancelab Goldmike 9844

The advantage of this recording method is that the room and the microphones do the work and there’s very little in the way of post processing.

You can check out the full video on Anton’s socials.

His album with a full band version of this song is coming out in the coming months.
