[QUOTE="Jason Raboin, post: 33806, member: 524"] Re: Telefunken M80 I'm a well documented, die hard PR35 fan, but a singer showed up on my stage at Newport Folk last weekend with an M80. At first he said he would just go with the 58's I had across the front, but I told him that if he was comfortable with the M80, we should use it. I had no trouble getting it loud in his mix. I suppose this would be folk loud, which is about 3 db over my starting place for a "rock" band. I listened to it in the cue and found it better than a 58 but not really to my liking. I found the presence peak to be artificial sounding. I would add that I tune monitors like I tune house - "flat" response with music and SpectraFoo. I'm not interested in tuning to a 58, or whatever the lead vocal mic is, and not worrying about how the instruments sound in the mix. I cue up each input in headphones and eq it,as I would if mixing house. This makes using several vocal mic models easier. [/QUOTE]
