Isn't
it too bad they don't make the Neumann U47 anymore? It's a shame no one can
produce an Elam251 in this day and age? But wait! There is something that has
that fat German sound, and it's made in Japan! The C-800 has been a major
label secret-weapon for years now, and has been the mic of choice for some of
the worlds hugest recording artists. In the video they pose in front of a
Chrome-Top U47. In the studio they're tracking their voices with the Sony
C-800G.
