dangerboy Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 (edited) Two more mics that I need to get rid of (so that I can afford a second AKG C414). Shure SM7B SOLD Beyer M380 TG. This is a real rarity - a figure-8 dynamic mic. Long out of production. This is the rarer black finish, that differs from the commoner gold model only in the colour of the paint. A killer kick drum and bass cab mic, that can also thicken a double bass sound beautifully. Makes even a thin bass sound into a tempest. Details here: [url="http://recordinghacks.com/microphones/beyerdynamic/M380"]http://recordinghacks.com/microphones/beyerdynamic/M380[/url] but all you need to know is that Steve Albini lists this as one of his favourite kick and bass guitar mics ("This mic has a bass proximity boost you can curdle milk with."). Also selling because I have 2. And will probably never have 2 again. Looking for £260 picked up, or £270 posted. No trades please, unless you have an AKG C414B-ULS that needs a home.

budget bassist Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Got a nice snare sound once out of a very similar beyerdynamic mic (can't remember the model number, it was a cardioid though), very good mics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joegarcia Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Just recorded two albums with the SM7B on vocals and my lord they are awesome. Want this so bad for my personal stash! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joegarcia Posted September 14, 2010 Share Posted September 14, 2010 Also, best bass sound I ever had was with a vintage SVT through a GS412 picked up by one of those Beyers at some radio session for Radio Paris. You have a truly enviable mic collection Steve! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dangerboy Posted September 20, 2010 Author Share Posted September 20, 2010 You and the other 20 people. I put the ad on Soundonsound.com. I have been drowning in replies since I sold it. It feels weird to me - SM7bs are great, but in no way rare. The M380 is hugely sought-after (by those who know) and rarely can you get hold of one.
