JZ Microphones V11 — Vintage Warmth For Spoken Word Audio
In this week’s episode, we have a look at and a listen to the JZ Mics Vintage 11 microphone. This large diaphragm condenser microphone is warm-toned mic that performs just as well at dialogue recording as it does vocals and instruments. In this video we listen to some V11 sound samples, compare the sound to other common condenser microphones, and walk through the V11’s feature set to help you decide if you want to give this mic a try. Let’s take a closer look!
If you’d like to learn how to make great dialogue audio for your film and video projects, please have a look at my courses including processing dialogue audio in Adobe Audition and DaVinci Resolve/Fairlight, recording sound, how to use the Zoom F4, F6, F8, and F8n, and how to get the most from the Sound Devices MixPre series of recorders.
