It isn’t very often that I come across a microphone or piece of hardware and it really transforms me emotionally. The New Twenties by the small, Spanish company, Tierra Audio has actually done it.
The last time an acoustic guitar sounded this good was when I was using the KM65 or KM53 that you can pick up for the price of a small car.
McKail Seely is back singing her original song, Right Now. During the tracking of this, she shared throughout that this was her favourite microphone she has ever tracked through and we understand why.
You can download the FREE multitracks of her performance here so that you can make up your own mind.
For Eric and I, this is going to be without a doubt our go-to acoustic microphone from now on.
We slept on this microphone for too long (Sorry, Tierra Audio) but I am so glad we finally got to it. If this microphone had been released 20 or so years ago, it would be in every studio as that perfect boutique microphone.
Tierra has been very generous to give one of these microphones away which you can win below.
Do check out today’s video where we review this microphone and download the FREE Multitracks to McKail Seely’s “Right Now”.
