Here are some classics that are used quite often:<!--more--><\/p>\n<h3>Dynamic Microphones<\/h3>\n<p>Frequently amps are recorded with dynamic microphones. The most popular classics are the <a href=\"https:\/\/de-de.sennheiser.com\/aufnahme-mikrofon-tontechnik-md-421-ii\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Sennheiser MD421<\/a>, the e606 and the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shure.de\/produkte\/mikrofone\/sm57\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Shure SM57<\/a>.<br \/>\nDynamic mics are characterized by the fact that they are able endure high sound pressure levels.<\/p>\n<p>They can be set right in front of a speaker without overdriving or being harmed. And in addition they are quiet cheap.<\/p>\n<p>Because of the nonlinear frequency response and the inertia of membrane the treble will only be transmitted limited. But for the emphasis a of frequency band from 2 up to 5 kHz they are pretty suitable for the recording of amplifiers.<\/p>\n<h3>Condenser Microphones<\/h3>\n<p>Mostly Condenser microphones are only used in the studio because of the high quality of their sound-transmission but they are expensive and less robust than dynamic mics.<br \/>\nLegendary condenser mics are for example the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.akg-pro.ch\/de\/akg_53554_DEU_AP_CH.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">AKG C-4000<\/a> or the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.neumann.com\/?cid=u87_description&amp;id=current_microphones&amp;lang=de\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Neumann U87<\/a>. But there are also cheaper mics of <a href=\"http:\/\/de.rode.com\/microphones\/all\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Rode<\/a> or numerous house brands of the big music stores.<\/p>\n<p>Their sound pressure tolerance is quite low and therefore they are more suitable for clean guitar sounds or to be used as a room microphone situated at two (or even more) meters distance.<\/p>\n<p>Because of a more linear frequency response condenser mics provide a natural sound.<\/p>\n<h3>Ribbon Microphones<\/h3>\n<p>Actually a relic of the good old times but right now they are in a great demand: the ribbon microphones.<br \/>\nThey can be used as room microphone or even right in front of the speaker.<br \/>\nThe sound of those mics gets characteristic by a softly cut treble and a flat frequency response.<br \/>\nThe <a href=\"http:\/\/royerlabs.com\/r-121\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Royer 121<\/a> is legendary but there are also good mics that are less expensive like the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cascademicrophones.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> Cascade Fat Head<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Studios that like to offer different voicings commonly combine diverse microphones.<\/p>\n<p>The next part of this series you will learn how to place the mics in front of the amplifier.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sorry, this entry is only available in Deutsch.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[265,973],"tags":[1031,1037,1034,1038,1029,1030,1027,1028,1033,1036,1032,1035,1025,1026,249],"class_list":["post-1422","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-amps-guitars","category-tips-tricks","tag-akg-c-4000","tag-baendchen-mikrofone","tag-cascade-fat-head","tag-condenser-microphones","tag-dynamische-mikrofone","tag-lautsprecher","tag-miking","tag-mikrofonierung","tag-neumann-u87","tag-ribbon-microphones","tag-rode","tag-royer-121","tag-sennheiser","tag-shure","tag-speaker"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9GLlF-mW","jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":5333,"url":"https:\/\/delaydude.de\/en\/strymon-brigadier-vs-mxr-carbon-copy-deluxe\/","url_meta":{"origin":1422,"position":0},"title":"Strymon Brigadier vs. MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe","author":"Delay Dude","date":"Wednesday January 13th, 2021","format":false,"excerpt":"This is a comparison of the Strymon Brigadier with the MXR Carbon Copy Deluxe.
