    The song in the beginning reminds me a lot of the stuff on Tim Pierce's solo album! That's great!

    Holy crap, Pete! That solo! Just mega. Not just cause of the number of notes either. Nice melody in there too.

    Love the VR1! I use it on so much. My standard setup for acoustic is recording midside with the SE 2200 mkII center and the VR1 as the side mic.

    Pete - great to see you were letting yourself loose on that intro. You are a classy player in all your compositions - this was fun to see. Thank you for providing your personal history with these mic's - it's great to know you're reviewing items you actually use, "pre Pete-Tested" so-to-speak. Your insights into mic placement, the way and what you convey about the engineering side of things and the affect on the sound - this is valuable and exciting stuff.
    Beautiful tone on the lead - phase pedal?

    As usual, awesome review!
    I will add as well, and it seems i am not alone, that your playing is going up a level and particularly on this clip, you seemed really focused and enjoying the groove! I caught a couple new licks in there too :) ... I am going to say that is in direct relation to working with all these different guitar players with different influences coming across! Bravo, my friend!

    This review made me buy the VR1. It is amazing on my guitar cabs. Thank you so much for doing this for us Pete. I live in a very isolated place. I ordered the microphone from our local dealer here, and it took only about 10 months to get it, hahahaha. Something must have failed with shipping to the dealer here, or something. Anyways, great vids, very detailed and the awesomest chops,riffs and solos.
    Musically

    Do most people use a Cloudlifter or Mogaine with ribbons to get a little better gain?

    Pete - when you soloed the acoustic part, did that have any of the direct signal mixed in or was that all RN 17?

    How are you getting the stereo sound with only one mic on the cab and acoustic? Are you double tracking and panning? I feel like I’m missing something

  • @HR2635
    @HR2635 Před 3 lety

    use the VR1 (set) as lot... glad I never bought a RN17.. I simply cant think of a situation in my studio where I would say: HEY! thats the mic I need for this!.. VR1: at least once a week.

  • @MichaelMakowski2006
    @MichaelMakowski2006 Před 8 lety

    I see you have the RN17 pointing almost right at the sound hole. Some folks choose to capture the sound at the 12th fret. Thoughts on this? Is pick noise more of an issue at the sound hole?

    • @chrisact9601
      @chrisact9601 Před 8 lety

      +Michael Makowski I go for a large diaphragm condenser or ribbon on the sound hole and a pair of small diaphragm condensers, one on the 12th fret and the other pointing more at the bridge. Then blend to taste.

  • @busyboxst7
    @busyboxst7 Před 4 lety

    I'm a bit confused why the sound is stereo on both the acoustic and the rhythm electric later in the video. Are we listening to two takes hard panned or ... What is creating the doubled/stereo effect in each case? Love the video but would be ideal to just hear a single take of a mic.

    • @PeteThorn
      @PeteThorn  Před 4 lety

      Without listening back yes I’m sure I probably double tracked the parts and hard panned them
