Bizarre Rig Combos?
« on: September 02, 2004, 02:35:13 PM »
While we all know there are certain rigs that were seemingly just made to be ran together (i.e. 480>M148, MBHO>MP2, KM184>V2>SBM1, etc.), anybody ever run across a rarely used combination of gear and been pleasantly surprised at the results?

It seems like a lot of the mic/pre combos are as financially motivated as anything. In other words, dollar range of mics = dollar range of pre. You see a lot of Oktava>UA5, AKG c1000>AD20, Neumann>V3 tapes, all comparably priced mics and pre-amps.

Just think, mk4>ps2>ad20 could make the greatest tapes of all time, but I doubt anybody's ever ran those together. A buddy of mine in NY runs c1000s>V3, and they are without a doubt the best c1000 tapes I've ever heard.

$1400 pre, $300 mics....huh?   I bet they do sound good though, for C1000 tapes!

Once ran a pair of Shure SM-11's (cheap ass lavaliers) into V2> ADC-20. . . What the hell, it was easy to get a backpack with that shit and a DA-P1 in (fest in a public park, pre-9/11), might as well squeeze whatever you can out of the mics!
