A $12 CONDENSER MIC THAT IS ACTUALLY GOOD

 This Condenser microphone cost less than a drink in a NYC bar and it's actually pretty good. 

The BM700 and BM800 large diaphragm condenser microphones have been sold under many brand names in various colors and package deals and prices. At only $12 this Pyle version of the BM700 is one of the cheapest iterations I have ever seen!

You can't even buy lunch for as cheap as this microphone in most cities in the United States. The crazy thing is that these mics are actually very decent. I had made some reviews on them that I would post here if my YouTube channel of 15 years hadn't been taken down back hackers.

Anyway, I had done a lot with these mics. I recorded everything from acoustic guitar, to drums, vocals, and room mics. They always worked well! Honestly I got some incredible sounds using only two of these mics on a drum kit in the past. 

It's almost hilarious that you can buy a 24 pack of these mics for $229, lol. I'm not sure why you would need 24 large diaphragm condenser mics, but if for some reason you do, well here's your chance to get them at a great price, hahaha. 

These are great mics for the budget home studio since they are very inexpensive and can work well on many instruments. At this price, I definitely highly recommend them!

VIRTUAL TOUR OF NYC'S COOLEST DRUM SHOP!

Image
 Yesterday I stopped by Good Hands Drum Shop in Midtown Manhattan and they were kind enough to let me film a video there. The shop is a cozy space, but nearly every inch of space is packed with drum gear.  They have a huge selection of new and vintage drums, and an even larger selection of snare drums that range from $100 all the way up to $8000! There's a huge selection of vintage Zildjian cymbals, as well as the largest collection of handmade boutique cymbal-smith cymbals in the country.  If you are a drummer or just like music stores that sell vintage gear, Good Hands drum shop is a must see!  Check out my full video tour below!

Un-converted my Tama Club-JAM flyer from electric back to acoustic! Ready for adventures!

Image
 I love my Tama Club-Jam Flyer, it is basically my desert island drum kit. For a while there I had it converted to electronic to play at home. But quite honestly, I missed playing it acoustically. So today I converted it back. I'm going to try to get outside somewhere with it this week to record a Drum Aventure! I originally got this kit in 2020 during the pandemic, and since then it has been my most played and recorded drum kit that I own.

RECORDING DRUMS OUTSIDE WITH MINIMAL MICROPHONES

Image
In recent years I have been recording drums outside in various places around New York City. I've been at parks, under bridges, in the forest, on piers, at abandoned sea plane hangers, and even civil war era forts! I usually take either an iPad or a Laptop with backing tracks and record with only a couple of microphones. I'm always recording video simultaneously so many times I also blend camera audio into my recordings. I have even used only iPad and iPhone microphones with good results. People often ask me how I get such good recordings outside using such little equipment, but it's not really as mysterious as one might think. Recording outside one worries much less about reflections from walls and ceilings, so it has a much drier sound naturally. Though some areas I recorded closer to walls and structures offer some sound reflection. I also usually play very minimal drum sets outside since they are much easier to move around. Often I wil...
