- In this great home recording video, producer, songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Trevor Thornton records an entire song “Don’t Let Me Go” using nothing but a pair of R-10 ribbon microphones for vocals, drums, piano, electric guitar, acoustic guitar and air organ. After the performance, he explains how he recorded each instrument, including signal chain and settings.
Trevor recorded Don’t Let Me Go and shot this footage in his home studio.
I forgot I was listening to a microphone demo! Great performance and song.
Thank you! That’s when you know you got a great mic!
What a great song.
I love this video. I recently picked up a matched pair of the R-10s, and this video was one of the things that helped me make the decision to pull the trigger.
I'm obsessed with the idea of using only one stereo pair of ribbon mics in a fixed position for everything. Fixed gain, set ahead of time for whatever the loudest track is. Adjust mix by moving the instruments around the room. Sort of a binaural thing, but recorded one track at a time.
🙌 We're noticing this being done more and more with the R-10! Let us know if you do - we love to see it.
Buying a matched pair now...damn you! :D
Yes! Get 4!
great song, very well produced : )
Right!? We're all very impressed!
I was looking for a demo of the R-10, I couldn't find a better one! Great sound, great song, and the explanation of the chain was really useful. Thanks!
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much! R10 FOREVER!
very nice!
Thank you! He really did an amazing job!
Thank you! Loved wiring with the mics!
Sounds very Beatles and that's a massive compliment. Well done.
This sounds incredible and its a beautiful song!
Thank you
Simple song sung simply , kudos !
I really appreciate that!
You sure made those R-10's sound sweet! I'm not familiar with the boosters you mentioned. Your vocals are so transparent and sound un-effected, all in a great way, no effects needed, nothing to hide! Great song! Thanks for sharing Trevor!!
Thank you so much! The mics are awesome!
What can I say: excellent song, sound and vibe. Very inspiring to hear what you're doing - good luck with the upcoming record!
Thank you so much Nils!
So talented. Awesome. Love the mic.
Thank you Shannon!

Thanks man, that means a lot!
Wonderful track and microphones, love it guys!
Thank you!!
Thanks Thom the mics made it easy!
Absolutely fantastic! Beautifully recorded! Great song, great performance! I'm using Neumann NDH 20 Studio Headphones and It sounds incredibly 3d in these cans. There's incredible depth and space and presence to this recording. Trevor you are one very talented singer/song writer/ producer!
I agree it’s fantastic. Kind of a cheesy sappy song but overall great production
This is such a great song! Bravo
Thank you Jean!
Sounds fantastic! I know what I’m buying tomorrow!
Thank you, this sounds great! I really enjoyed the song and I’m looking forward to listening to the EP. 👏🏻
Holy crap, that was good!!
Well done Sir, well done indeed.
Wow, amazing performance
wow and respect ! You did a great job. Greetings from Germany, Roger
Thanks for the informative video, and great playing man!
Thank you so much!
Just amazing !
BEAUTIFUL
I used an R10 pair to track a grand piano, thru ribbon mic specific preamps. They sounded amazing, almost like condenser mics. I redid the take with Schoeps omnis, and however wonderful the Schoeps sounded, I preferred the R10 sound. It's a totally amazing ribbon.
Thank you very much!
Yes!
Outstanding!
Thank you!
@@royerlabs Two R10s on my wishlist. Getting them soon.
Thank you!
Great song and recording
Was a lovely song, sort of Beatles, sort of Passenger sounding. Good mics too.
Thank you!
The sound of the mics definitely inspired the song. Thank you!
@@trevorthorntonmusic2054 ;) Thanks, Trevor
Royer did the heavy lifting here.
Thanks, Trevor!!!
Good Job Bud
@@LosFicosMusic thank you.
Simply not true, but I appreciate your humility!
@@kbb149 ahhhh Shucks! Thanks.
wow beautiful. So curious about the pre amps ???
Reminds so much of a John Lennon song. Beautiful everything.
We love it too. A John Lennon song - that's high praise!
It’s the major to minor chord patterns. Sounds like a lot of other songs going for that twee falsetto thing.
Beautiful song, did you write it?
What model is this air organ? can't find a simular one no idea of the brand.
What mic did you use to record the piece to camera?
The mic I used to explain the chain was non other then the R10! The R10’s and dBoosters were the only mics used on the song. The audio of me talking was one R10 and a dBooster.
Sounds really close to "Something" by the Beatles to me. Maybe too close.
stop using this guy to sell me microphones!!! :)
Something in the way she moves...
hmm maybe point the vocal mic down towards his throat more than his nostrils. It is making him sound s bit too light in the loafers if you know what I mean...
Most people kiss as$. I tell it how it is. Would like a bit more reverb on the vocal track as well. Sounds a bit dry and nasaly....
Thanks for your input chris. Tell it like it is!
