Vintage 1970s news reporter kit
When @Sennheiser asked me to collab for #421 day I jumped at the chance to cosplay as a 1970s news reporter.
I took my trusty vintage MD421-2 and combined it with a period-correct Uher Report Monitor 4000. I have seen reporters on TV, children’s books (Ali Mitgutsch Wimmelbücher for my German audience) and IRL rocking this combination, down to the leather bag.
Recording outside I was surprised how sensitive the combination was - I had used the 421 in the studio, on drums especially for my „Nuclear Drum Loops“ sound pack. Outside it picked up tiny details from the environment -.especially birdsong sounded beautiful. As someone obsessed with field recording on tape, that was a wonderful surprise. I can replace my heavy Nagra setup with the Uher/MD421 in many cases.
The MD421 is a truly classic mic, here is to many more 421 days! Now @sennheiser, how about a MD21 day? I got ideas :-) #ad #anzeige# microphone# fieldrecording #retrotech #reeltoreel
