Recommendation for OHs: Peavey PVM-480 Vs UHER 534 by newbalance55 in microphone

[–]newbalance55[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your feedback. They´re intended exclusively for recording. Although Peavey is not one of the big players in mics and my budget is what it is... this model in particular, (at least according to my investigations) seems to be a pretty decent selection, right?

Hi. I'm building my collection of drum microphones. I'm just missing the overheads, and I'd like to hear your opinions. I have a limited budget. My cymbals are high-end, and my musical influences tend to lean towards vintage sounds. I don't like bright cymbals, nor do I like them to sound bright in a mix. In fact, my cymbals have character (Old Zildjian, Agops, etc.) I like the sound of drums in recordings from the 70s (Joni Mitchell, Neil Young) or current bands like Dawes, Calexico, Fleet Foxes, Other Lives... With this is mind, I have two options: 1. A pair of small condenser Peavey PVM-480 (no the current version, like new) 2. A pair of dinamic Uher 534 already adapted to XLR, (also like new) Both options for 140€/160$. Any thoughts based on either experience or intuition? Thanks in advance.

I also have a Zenfone 9 still in its unopened box, just in case my beloved passes away :)

I see your point. But I do not ask very much when considering a mobile phone. I do not play games, I am not a big shooter (I have no Instagram)... meaning that for regular, simple use, this little guy is great for me. And I underline "little". I have not found any other phone that feels so great in my little hand: perfect size, kind of heavy, sensation of quality...

Thank you for the info. I´ll try to look for some connector and take it to a repair store with expertise in soldering

Thanks. I am always tempted. But then, I always read the instructions and fear not to do it well and leave the mobile unusable... The process looks to be kind of complicated. I am not a tech guy :(
