Used Applied Microphone Technology S25b-Tp Tailpiece Acoustic Bass Microphone $615.16 The AMT S25B-TP is an electret-condenser microphone system that has been designed for acoustic bass. The system has exactly the same sound characteristics and functions as the famed S25B, however the "TP "(tail piece) systems includes the ability to mount the mic on the tailpiece of an acoustic bass.All of the parameters that are problematic for the double bass have been addressed. The S25B- TP bass microphone will acquire the most gain before feedback by using a very tight pattern to give a high rejection to surrounding noise. At the same time, the system reproduces with great definition capturing all of the subtleties of the bass.As placement is especially important with an instrument that has a fine finish and varying dimensions, this microphone's attachment mechanism is designed to attach to the tailpiece of the acoustic bass guitar. This allows the instrument and the microphone to be placed back into a carrying case without having to remove the microphone from the body of the instrument. All of the bass microphones now also include D.C.T. (Disconnect Cable Technology). D.C.T. allows you to remove the cable from the microphone.Made from aluminum to keep the mass low yet extremely strong, the AMT bass mic will remain durable through many years of use. The flex arm is easy to position yet retains it's placement throughout the most active of performances. The preamp for the microphone is rugged anodized aviation aluminum, which houses the electronics that can be placed on the floor. This preamp uses a circuit that can change EQ, curve, and gain by exchanging EPROM-like chip. The preamp runs off of battery or phantom power. The output is terminated with a male XLR type connector for balanced use. The AMT bass mic is connected to the preamp by a 4-pin locking connector. The system includes 1 microphone, cable that disconnects from the microphone, the AP40 preamp, and a hardshell case.Mounts to tailpiece of acoustic bassesCaptures great definition and subtletiesRemovable cordMade from lightweight, durable aluminumIncludes microphone, cable, AP40 preamp, and hardshell case |

Applied Microphone Technology AMT S25B Acoustic Bass Condenser Microphone $676 The S25B is an electret-condenser microphone that has been designed for acoustic bass. All of the parameters that are problematic for the double bass have been addressed. To be able to get the most gain before feedback it uses a very tight pattern to give a high rejection to surrounding noise, at the same time reproducing accurately the subtleties of the bass. As placement is especially important with an instrument that has a fine finish and varying dimensions, the S25B microphone's attachment mechanism is designed to secure the mic to the bass in different positions taking seconds to attach. This mechanism is fitted with natural soft suede so as not to mark or mar instrument. Made from aluminum to keep the mass low yet extremely strong, this AMT microphone will remain durable through many years of use. The flex arm is easy to position yet retains it's placement throughout the most active of performances. The mic has an LED that can be easily seen while performing. This indicates status of a battery or phantom power. The preamp for the S25B microphone is rugged anodized aviation aluminum, which houses the electronics that can be placed on the floor.

How To Record Music At Home
How to Record Music at Home
Adam Hartwick (AudioPlace.net, SuperStrainMusic.com)
Technology, specifically home recording, has progressed in leaps and bounds in the past few years. Thousands of dollars of equipment and years of schooling were once required to produce professional sounding recordings, but no more! There are many examples of powerful, easy to use software, which make it easy and convenient to multi-track record in the comfort of home. The software has become relatively cheap and in some cases free, however this is only one piece of the puzzle when building a home studio. The computer is the most important part of this puzzle and by far the most expensive, but who doesn’t already own a computer in this “point and click” world? Computers are as common as television sets and telephones in most American homes so I am going to assume that you at least know someone with a computer and have basic computer skills. So with this in mind lets look at a few essential pieces of the home recording puzzle.
- Computer (or access to one)
- Microphones
- Audio Interface
- Recording software (Pro Tools, Sonar, Garage Band, Audacity, etc.)
Now lets look at the individual pieces in more detail.
- Computer- If you don’t have at least a general understanding of computers then you must have been hiding under a rock for the past 10 years. I recommend picking up a book on basic computing or finding a 6 year old to teach you.
- Microphones- There are literally hundreds, maybe even thousands of different types of microphones available at every price imaginable, which can be intimidating to some people when recording at home. Trying to explain the difference between these microphones would be impossible within the realm of this article so we will just briefly explain them. I highly recommend, however to do some research on the different types and find someone with experience in recording to help you decide what microphones are best in each application. All microphones, generally speaking, do the same job. They take audio information (noise) and convert it into a signal, which can be moved through a cable to another location (amplifier, computer, etc.) where it is then converted back into noise. All microphones do this job well, but some are better than others for certain applications. Since this is a basic article and I want to help set up a studio without spending an arm and a leg, I will simply recommend finding microphones within your budget and experimenting with them to find which work best for you. I also recommend that if you only buy one microphone, it should be a SM 57, which is in my humble opinion the most well rounded microphone available and can be purchased for around $100.
- Audio Interface- This is a piece of hardware, which takes the audio information from your microphone and converts it to information that can be used by your computer and recording software. It is the link between the music and your computer. There are many different brands available at many different price ranges but all do the same job. The difference between them is basic quality of components and construction but also in amount or numbers of input/ output channels. An interface with a single stereo input allows you to take one microphone and record onto one single track. This is great for vocals or guitars or any other instrument in which only one microphone and one track is needed. This however limits you greatly if you want to put multiple microphones on a single instrument or when recording drums, which have many pieces and need many microphones and tracks. This can be fixed in two different ways. Either buy an audio interface with multiple inputs (this is where the interface gets extremely expensive) or buy a small mixing board and mix all of the microphones together before they are put into the interface. This is a very cost effective way to record but it does have its limitations. Once the drums (for example) are mixed through the mixing board, then put into a single input interface, they will be recorded onto a single track within your recording software. This means that you have no way to separate the different drums once the track is recorded. If you can’t here the snare drum, you can’t just turn up that track because they have already been mixed together and cannot be separated. The drums have to be perfectly mixed at perfect volumes in the mixing board before the recording happens. This can still produce quality sounding drum tracks but can be quite frustrating when you start adding all the other instruments and realize that one of the drums is too loud or not loud enough. You will have to decide what types of instruments you will be recording and how many inputs you will need and at what budget. Most audio interfaces also come with recording software, which means that you can simply buy an interface and start recording immediately.
- Recording Software- Most of the popular softwares are similar in many ways. The very basic procedures when setting up your recording software (and studios in general) is to understand where your audio is coming from and where it is going. What is the path the audio is going to take to get from the instrument, through your hardware and software, then to your ears? Some recording software will automatically set up and recognize the input and output drivers but in many cases you will have to find the driver settings somewhere in your software and set the appropriate drivers for your inputs and outputs. Input drivers- How is the audio getting into your computer? When you buy an audio interface, it usually comes with a disk to upload the appropriate software and drivers. When you open your recording program and find the driver settings, you must select the drivers that coincide with the audio interface that you are using. Some programs also have buttons labeled I/O, which are your input/output settings. This tells the computer where the noise is coming from and where it is going. Once your software knows where the music is coming from and where it should send it so that you can here it (computer speakers, mixing board, headphone amplifier, etc.), then the actual recording can take place. All software comes with some form of equalization and effects, which can take the dry music and add/subtract things to make it work best in the overall song. Again, this is an extreme over-generalization of what EQ and effects can do to a track or an overall recording, but for this article I will simply tell you that there is no substitution for finding someone with knowledge and asking them to share. There are also hundreds of tutorials available online and other articles and forums specifically dedicated to explaining and sharing recording knowledge. If you are reading this article, then you must be interested and excited by recording your own music so I think the best and most fun way to understand these concepts is by experimenting.
Now with a little trial and error, you will soon be proficient at multi-track-recording and will no longer need to spend $60+ an hour at a studio to share quality recordings of yourself or of your band. It has been an extremely fun and rewarding hobby for me not to mention somewhat lucrative. Once you become proficient at recording, you can charge others bands to record at your home studio. You can also run your software with a laptop, which allows you to create a mobile studio. Start asking bands in your area if they would like you to record their next demo album or record their live show for a small fee. With a small investment in hardware, software and time, you can begin to earn money for doing something that you love in your free time!
Now that you have the equipment and knowledge, you can also begin to collaborate with other musicians from around the world at www.SuperStrainMusic.com or AudioPlace.net Record your own tracks and let others add their talents to your music or help others finish their songs by adding your newly found talents… Experiment, contribute, collaborate, and make music with the world!
