The Joly Modified Rode NT1A is my “quick Choice” again. To my ear, this mic is very flat and natural sounding. Though it may not be my first choice for all vocals, if I were tracking a strong vocalist who has good mic technique and can enunciate well, this would clearly be an excellent mic to select. The top is open and the highs/high-mids are smooth. I am very impressed by this mic. Fortunately Brian is a great vocalist, and for a production of just guitar and his voice this would be my choice.
Michael Joly Engineering / OktavaMod Shop produced modification to almost all Oktava microphones then branched out to make mic's of his own using the shells of other brands. However he stopped doing mic mods in 2019.
light duty studio grill screen makes this only reasonable in a studio environment.
I bought this mic from another studio (after it was modified.) I never got a studio of my own off the ground.
--This is cheaper than any Joly LDC on reverb site now.
--floating band suspension mount included for full price offer.
--This mic requires phantom power from a mixer or pre-amp. it will not work off many 'onebox' powered mixers
cash, local, don't need help, won't pass out numbers, etc. etc.
