This has changed my view of what a microphone system can be
I was quite happy with the mic collection that came with my Sphere mic. They all sounded great and the notion that you could dial in the perfect tone during mix was quite an amazing experience. Well, I was at the end of a modern pop type mix and THIS additional 'pedigree' collection from Ocean Way came out. The mic that worked best for the record I was working on was the c800g and I was curious to hear a variation on the record. Holy cow....Uhmmm.....THIS collection is pure magic! There an additional degree of energy, presence and resolution that creates such a classy high end sound. These mic models just sound and feel right. Purists will probably hate, and some will doubt. I for one am sold (literally). This is now a new era in mic technology and it is a joy to get to experience it!

An even bigger reason to love the Sphere system...
Even though some of the 'usual suspects' here have different emulations in the standard Sphere pack (U47, C-12, etc), these models taken from Allen Sides' collection are an incredible sounding collection of some of the rarest 'golden units'...all with a pedigree. I can't believe how great these sound - and with the flexibility of the Sphere system it makes this a no-brainer for those of us who love having classic tones at our fingertips. I can't say enough about the quality of these emulations - and love the fact that some lesser known classics that many of us may never have come across (KM-53, KU-3A) are included. CLASSY sounds, and an education in tone...in a plug in. If you own a Sphere mic, I don't recommend you demo this pack unless you have the cash to buy it. Trust me.....
My only complaint is that we need a 180 (stereo) version of this pack. PLEASE!!!
