In this episode of The Pro Audio Suite, we delve into the intricacies of Match EQ techniques, exploring how to fine-tune the U87 vs. 416 microphones for different environments, and discussing the challenges of ADR in post-production. Whether you're a seasoned audio engineer or a voiceover artist, this episode is packed with valuable insights into the tools and techniques that can elevate your sound. Topics Covered:
  • TriBooth and U87 vs. 416 Microphone Matching: George shares his latest experience setting up a TriBooth to match a U87 in a booth with a 416. Learn how close you can get using Match EQ and where traditional listening and tweaking still play a crucial role.
  • ADR Challenges in Post-Production: Robbo and the team discuss the ongoing struggle of matching ADR lines with on-set dialogue, particularly when using different mics and recording setups. Discover the often-overlooked post-production work that ensures seamless audio transitions.
  • The Importance of Mic Placement and EQ: The team emphasizes why proper mic placement should be your first move before reaching for the EQ. Get the source right to avoid relying on EQ as a crutch and ensure your recordings are as clean as possible.
  • U87 vs. 416: Regional Differences and Industry Standards: The crew explores the regional preferences for U87 and 416 microphones, comparing the U87's popularity in New York to the 416's dominance in LA. Is the U87 truly the industry standard in Australia, or has the 416 taken over?
  • The History and Iconic Status of the 416 Mic: A fascinating dive into the history of the 416 microphone, its role in the industry, and why it has become the go-to mic for so many voiceover professionals.
  • Listener Question: A listener asks about using a ribbon mic for voiceover work in a home studio. Is it time for a new sound to take over from the 416?
Gear Talk:
  • Austrian Audio OC818: Andrew discusses his favorite mic, the Austrian Audio OC818, and why it hasn’t left his desk since he got it. Is this the perfect mic for his voice?
