TAGGED: R44 series

“They rarely get unplugged, but instead move around the room as tracking happens…”

“…I suspect there isn’t a sound an AEA can’t conquer. I won’t do a session without them.”

“Nothing captures the presence of a vocal like the AEA 44C…”

“I’m lovin the mics… the R44 is incredible on anything I put it on pretty much”

“There are very few pieces of equipment that can handle the amount of tasks I put the KU5A up against. It handled all of them effortlessly with the perfect amount of clarity and enjoyable qualities. It’s a winner, hands down.”

“The 44 is easily my favorite mic for capturing a true representation of any instrument. I find that it has the ability to grab every detail of an entire drum kit without the need for any close mics.”

“We credit much of our sound in the studio to AEA microphones. They have shaped our sound from the very beginning, and without them our record wouldn’t have had quite the same character and earnestness. “

“These have become my desert island ribbons.”

“I’ve been using the R88 lately as a room mic out in front of the drums. I really like that a lot, it sounds really cool…”

“The R44 was my go-to while recording Club Meds. Vocals, acoustic guitars, pianos, electric organ, horns, you name it. Stereo pair or mono. I love how buttery it is. My favourite mic that I own!”

“We also used the A440 on the amazing French vocalist, Cyrille Aimee, where it sounded huge. Perfect for her voice on this hot club project. She fell in love with the mic!”

“The RPQ500 has left me reaching for a ribbon over a dynamic mic every time I record guitars.”

“[N8s] give me the sound exactly the way I want to capture it, which, to me, is the very definition of a ‘dream’ microphone.”

“The R88 is beyond belief! It makes every room in my house like a perfect room…A really joyous mic!”

“The R44 through the RPQ2 is one of my favorite chains lately. It sounds absolutely incredible…”

“The N8 has a fantastically full and natural tone, and can easily and safely be hoisted above an orchestra.”

“The R88 is the most realistic mic I’ve ever used. I still get confused if during playback the piano is coming out of the speakers or if the pianist is still playing in the room.”

“The RPQ2 takes my AEA microphones to the next level. There’s gain for days and it’s insanely quiet.”
