Inside the Songwriters In The Wild
Studio
with Mark Hornsby
When Creativity Strikes
Stereo thoughts
Stereo mics are not all created equal. Yes, there
is a stereo mic in your phone, and it's not a bad
thing for what it does. When you pull out your
phone at a concert or a rowdy birthday party
and start filming, the last thing you want is distorted audio in your keepsake video, so the software
on the phone is designed to compress the signal. The
downside is, it probably won't produce user-friendly files in
the studio. If you want a stereo mic that attaches to the phone,
sounds good and has an app that doesn't manipulate the signal
(an equally important part), consider the Shure MV88 Digital Stereo Condenser Microphone for iOS [I like and use the
MV88+ -Ed]. Not only does it sound great, but it's compact,
attaches to your device and is easy to use. I've even thrown
them up as added room mics on drums in the studio; I've put my
phone on airplane mode, recorded the entire session, dropped the
files in Pro Tools, and lined up the tracks after the fact. Pretty handy, IMHO.
OK, USB
" But Hornsby, I want a more traditional mic that's compact and doesn't break the bank. " No problem.
Check out the Apogee MiC PLUS. Yes, it's a USB mic, but it's a cardioid mic with 46dB of gain, and it
comes with a tabletop mic stand. It's small enough to fit in your pocket and only weighs half a pound.
Need more features? Check out the Apogee HypeMic. It has a built-in analog compressor-a pretty
handy feature-just please don't overdo it!
