Once soloed, we confirmed that this mic is a monster.” It was so punchy and booming that we had to make sure no other mics were on. “The first thing that struck all of us when listening back in the control room was how massive the kick is. – John Feldmann (Good Charlotte, The Used, Mest, 5 Seconds of Summer, Blink-182)
REVIEWS “I use it for all my clients, and look where it got me.” If you want to sound like God, then use the mic Don LaFontaine used! The Manley Reference Cardioid mic. If you seem to be constantly boosting 12-18K and trying to get a clean, intimate sound, then probably the Reference Gold would be the safest bet. With your present mic, if you find yourself leaning on your compressors and boosting 5 or 10K to score a bit more testosterone, then the Reference Cardioid just might be the mic you’re looking for to cure what ails ya. Its rich tonal balance and liquid character is consistently admired for instruments such as guitars, drum overheads, saxophone, and especially vocals. With the similar film thickness and construction, similar high frequency resonance (a little edge), similar proximity effect and pretty good immunity from pops and sibilance problems, our Reference Cardioid more closely recalls how many of the vintage European tube mics such as the beloved U47 sounded like when they were new. The Reference Cardioid Microphone shares the same electronic attributes as the Gold Reference Series, but has a center-fixed cardioid-only capsule with a thicker gauge (6 micron) gold sputtered diaphragm.
