This is only a screenshot of what I’ve done today, this is only 2/4 microphones I had reviewed today. There are 4 different colours because 4 different people reviewed the microphones, and it was more of a ‘Listening and Comparison’ test. I did this test because I thought I needed to do this to get my overall microphone, and having one person (person in the red) who has never learned much about microphones, I found it interesting to see what he thought of the microphones... whereas the other colours are people from my course who roughly knew about microphones.

So I have decided to do a powerpoint, all about the microphone placements and how they effect the outcome, in the third slide of my powerpoint, i did a short introduction all about why i wanted to do this, who i did it with and how i did the experiment. After that; 

Every other slide looks a bit like this, with a picture of my guitarist and the microphone I used in that recording. In this example I am showing you I will be using an SM57. Here you can see I have explained a little bit about an SM57 and how far away it was placed from the guitar. After each slide like that, I have placed a slide which has a mini evaluation about how i feel the recording went and how i could have done better.

SE  Vs  AKG

For my unit 7, I am making a Youtube video, about how to set up an acoustic guitar, with two different ways to attach 4 microphones to a mic stand. With this, I will explain the 4 different microphones, SE2000, SE X1, AKG C414 and an SM57. With this 4 different microphones, I can explain the different attachments, the polar patterns and the best angle to record these at. Once I have explained all of that, I will show a screen recording of how to set up a Logic Pro X session and all how to set it up correctly, with showing shortcuts. I will show recording of all different microphones to show the different outcome of the sound to compare which microphone would be the best at recording and why. Personally i think the SE X1 is the best microphone at recording because i recorded an acoustic guitar for my last assignment and i found that the outcome, comes out better than i thought, due to the microphone being hand-crafted and hand-tuned by skilled technicians in their own factory. Whether you’re recording lead vocals, acoustic guitar, strings, percussion or any other source instruments, I believe the sE X1 outperforms every mic in its price class.
