This week we look at the over 50 year history of the Electro Voice RE20. We put it up against its broadcast rival the Shure SM7b. For fun, we invited the RE20's little brother, the PL10 for some fun. This one ran a little long, but be sure to watch till the end to find out about our 20th Mic Locker video give away! **CORRECTIONS** Didn't realize you couldn't put two cards to the same video. At 9:06 there should be a link to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIR3obUv0X0 At 8:53 The price for the RE27ND is higher than the RE20 and RE320. The RE320 is less expensive than either of them. The 27ND has a set of filters that neither the RE20 nor the 320 have which tailor it for various instrument use. ********************* **LINKS** RE 20 Re-foaming a guide by Jeff Geerling - https://www.jeffgeerling.com/blog/2017/refurbishing-classic-microphone-electro-voice-re20 RE 20 Baby Rattle and Refoam Repair (3 part series) @DaveRat RE20 video #1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZwUhltbUkBA RE20 video #2 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FClhZX7wnAQ RE20 video #3 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnqWvedmZns ALL AUDIO EXAMPLES ARE OF THE MICS SET FLAT ** CONTENTS ** 00:00 - Intro 00:50 - RE20 History 05:18 - Variable D 06:30 - Proximity Example 07:38 - RE20 Mechanical Info 13:16 - Vocal Test 15:31 - Guitar Test 17:27 - Bass Test 18:18 - Conga Test 19:05 - Drum Test 21:05 - Conclusion
