TAGGED: RPQ500
“…I suspect there isn’t a sound an AEA can’t conquer. I won’t do a session without them.”
Manny Nieto / Health, Breeders
“The R84 is aces across the board with sound quality. Musically capturing exactly what I’m looking for and built like a tank!”
Justin Meldal-Johnsen / Beck, Nine Inch Nails, Air
“My N22 has turned out to be an incredible bass amp mic…to such an extent that I won’t record bass without it.”
Josh Block / Leon Bridges
“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.”
Chris Koltay / War On Drugs, Deerhunter
“AEA mics are my first line of defense in the war against boring, sterile sounds. You will not find a finer example of the intersection of craftsmanship and sonic truth.”
Vance Powell / Jack White, The White Stripes, Chris Stapleton
“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…”
Greg Curtis / The Bridge Recording
“What I like about the KU4s is that they are a rendition of the originals that leaves nothing to be desired.”
Jake Aron / Grizzly Bear, Jamie Lidell, Solange
“The RPQ500 has left me reaching for a ribbon over a dynamic mic every time I record guitars.”
Brad Haehnel / Pixar, Life of Pi
“The R88 has become an indispensable tool in my mic collection… it is always somewhere in my orchestral brass setups.”
Justin Pizzoferrato / Pixies, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr.
“The RPQ500 lets my ribbon microphones be themselves without too much unwanted color and noise”
Gus Borner / Pixar, Marvel, Deadpool
“We used the KU5A on cello spot on Deadpool 2’ orchestra sessions and loved it. Having a supercardioid ribbon like this opens a lot of new possibilities. You can now dig in but still get the characteristic ribbon sound.”
Alex Chaloff / The AEA Sessions
“The RPQ2 takes my AEA microphones to the next level. There’s gain for days and it’s insanely quiet.”
