3 affordable tube condensers with the vintage sound.
Testing out the Rode K2 with NOS Mullard tube, the Nude 251 and the Advanced Audio CM67SE, same song, same preamp, same attempt at singing by me :D
All mics recorded with the same gain setting and an 80hz high pass, through a Golden Age Premier Pre-73. I ran the gain a little hot which is more obvious in the loud notes. No EQ or compression, and the mics weren't peak matched (though the peaks ended up being pretty similar because of the gain).
