Now that we tend to play louder and record louder, I'm tempted to try new microphones. I've tested the SM57 because my bandmate has one and I have a couple copies lying around, really not good at capturing the width of what we do. Going to try a pair of e906 or copies of I can get my hands one some. The other alternative will be to keep using the SE ribbons but at a further distance, which means more room sound than I'd like (especially as they're figure 8) and losing the proximity effect which helped a lot at capturing our low end properly.
The latest release we've made in 2021 is pure Palmer DI and no mics because I haven't solved the recording mic conundrum since our last record in 2015
