Frequently Asked Questions

It essentially offers two slightly different voicings – one a bit more open and airy, the other a touch darker and more focused, allowing you to tailor the mic's character.
It can work, but be mindful of the TG’s inherent warmth; it might be too colored for a completely neutral acoustic sound. Experiment with the A/B voicing to find a sweet spot.
It’s a different beast entirely – the U87 is known for its neutrality, while the Chandler delivers a distinct, saturated character. Think of it as a more 'flavored' microphone.
