Search the web and you’ll find hundreds of articles videos – and thousands of opinions – on the best mics to use for radio and podcasting. One of our sponsors is Angry Audio, makers of two novel mic processors to improve and control the sound of two popular microphone families. Our longtime friend and colleague, Cornelius Gould, designed the audio processing algorithms behind these specific mic processors. “Corny” joins us to talk about this rather unique approach to mic processor design and implementation. Plus Tom Ray pops in to discuss microphone choices with Chris Tarr. Plenty of opinions and some solid advice!
Show notes:
- Cornelius Gould is also the founder & host of The Rocketry Show podcast.
- The mic pre/processors for which Corny wrote the algorithms are the REbel & SMooth from Angry Audio
- Tom Ray’s microphone is a PreSonus PX-1 condenser mic with a dbx 286s processor
- Chris Tarr is liking his Electro-Voice RE20 with a RØDECaster Pro
- Kirk is currently using a Sennheiser MKH 416-P48U3 with a PreSonus Revelator iO24
