Need to see which is best for what.

TV commercial - High energy national https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q6ZtXJbxZec

TV commercial - Close mic sponsor bumper national https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gkRgbnFb1Ws

Promotional ad agency, international - https://vimeo.com/127906849

Piece to camera/radio imagininining - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vvyHQGUyGko

Corporate and F***ing dull! - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2440tkFAt8

So. In the above, in order I used a Neumann U87, a Neumann U87, a Neumann U87, a Neumann U87, a Neumann U87, a Neumann U87, a Neumann U87, and finally a Neumann U87.

Which is best for what or should I add another mic to mic closet like a Neumann U87?

But is it the U87ai or the U87i or just the plain U87 and is it U-boat Grey
or Spitfire Nickel in color? Ninja

GTI, made in 1987 by VW so I suspect claims to the quality were exaggerated in order to dupe the unsuspecting American consumer.

We should test VO people like that. A long probe inserted in the muffler.

I prefer the St. John Neumann --

It hears your confessions in at least seven languages.

Out of curiosity -- does that make him the patron saint of audio engineers?
