The Zutons
With a brand new album out The Zutons are performing again using a cocktail of beyerdynamic microphones including the M88 (Saxaphone) and the TGX-60 (vocals). FOH engineer Martin Mittler explains how he wouldn’t have it any other way;

.
“As I remember it started with an old M 88 on the bass amp, which is almost an industry standard. Then we put an M 69 on the saxophone because it can be shrill at times and the M 69 gives it much needed warmth whilst retaining enough presence. We use an M 201 for the snare top. This combined with a condenser for the under snare is fat and punchy. I combine the M 88 with a large diaphragm condenser for the guitars, which again sound fat and rich. The Opus 99 has recently been added for the bass amp. It sounds smooth and rich. Finally the TG-X 60 with its high output and smooth frequency response has been great for all of our front-line vocals. The tight hypercardioid pattern is great for cutting down on ambient stage noise and keeping the singers from straying too far off-axis.” The amount of beyerdynamic mics in our arsenal has steadily grown. Every addition has been a helpful and satisfying one”.

Gallien Krueger has been in particular demand. With their trademark punchy sound and devastating attack, it really is no big surprise. Lyn-Z from MSI agrees:

“It has the sound I have always been looking for. Clean attack, smooth warm lows, and lots of punch. And it sound even better when I'm jumping off of it”.
