Building a Mix Using Peluso Microphones - Part 2: Stand Up Bass (22 47 SE, P-84)

From the hand soldering of the circuit boards, to the selection and testing of the vacuum tubes, Peluso microphones are hand assembled using the highest quality modern and vintage components sourced from around the world. In this video, SoundPure Recording Engineer, Allen Palmer, continues our series on Peluso Microphones, with a stand up bass recording. A 2247 SE near the bridge and a P84 near the fingerboard, provide a full and complete sound that really brings out that beefy bass, while keeping all the clarity.

XY Miking Technique using the Peluso P84 SDC Microphone Stereo Kit

In this video we discuss the XY miking technique using the Peluso P84 SDC Stereo Kit on mandolin and dobro. The XY techinque is one of the few coincident miking techniques that minimizes phase issues as the sound is arriving at both microphones at the same time when the mics are arranged correctly. Because of this, the XY technique is an excellent technique for quick and easy recording setups or when the panning of the mics in the mix is not yet determined during the recording stage (the mics can be summed to mono or panned wider without fear of comb filtering). We chose the Peluso P84 Stereo Kit as our microphone example for this technique video to showcase one of the many miking techniques at your disposal when you purchase a P84 Stereo Kit with it's included accessories (stereo bar, shockmounts, omni capsules). Additionally the P84 is available for our free try-before-you-buy demo program, so if you enjoy the sounds heard in this video and want to hear how the P84s will sound in your studio with your gear please don't hesitate to give us a call at anytime! We want to extend a huge thanks to our performers George and Danny of the NC roots rock band Jack the Radio! Make sure to check them and their tunes out at www.JacktheRadio.com. If you have any questions about the XY miking technique, the Peluso P84s, or recording gear in general - we're here to help. Thanks for watching! 919-682-5552 or toll free 888-528-9703
