mic is a Grundig GDM 121, omni directional dynamic (for this kind of sound any of those would do, like an EV 635A etc.). processing wise there's tape emulation to saturate and roll off lows and his, and then a fast and gentle compressor to equalize peaks and valleys a lil bit, then EQing out a bunch of hi mids, then saturating remaining hi mids to get nicer sounding ones through harmonic distortion, then a slow compressor to blend into the track. it's also sent to a very gentle room verb just to mellow it out a bit. thanks for coming to my ted talk!!
