JZ Microphones on vocals are a no-brainer. The V67, V12, and Black Hole BH2 have become staples in my studio over the past few years. They're built like tanks, are perfectly priced, have a unique design, and -- most importantly -- sound fabulous on virtually every sound source.

When members of my online community, Mix Protégé, were having trouble deciding between these three @JZMicrophones models as their main vocal mic, I made this quick video to demonstrate each mic's subtle differences. It's a basic demo using only my speaking voice as a sound source, but I hope you will find it helpful in your own vocal mic pursuit!

== JZ MICROPHONES ON VOCALS: V67, V12, and BH2 ==

The differences between these three mics (on my voice, in this video) are subtle -- especially if you’re listening on phone or laptop… which kinda proves an important point I often reiterate to folks struggling to decide on “the best vocal mic”.

The pro audio pundits of the internet would have you believe that the fate of your future recordings hangs in the balance of one critical decision: finding “the perfect vocal mic”. Don’t believe the hype. At the very least, don’t get paralyzed fearing you’ll make the “wrong choice” and will be stuck forever with a mic that makes you sound poopy.

The fact is these days there are so many incredible microphones on the market in a variety of price ranges. If you’re considering a mic purchase – especially if it’s your first – HERE ARE A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:

🎤 Chances are, all the mics you’re considering are great and you’ll find happiness.

🎤 There will be more microphones in your future; this is just one.

🎤 I’ve never met a mic I didn’t have a great time using and felt satisfied with the result, unless it’s broken or needs repair.

🎤 Sometimes inexpensive mics outperform expensive ones. “Vintage” and/or “expensive” isn’t always better.

If I only had ONE microphone and knew I’d be using it on a wide variety of sound sources I’d choose a large-diaphragm condenser, preferably with multiple polar patterns and a 10dB pad (otherwise fixed cardioid would do just fine).

=== All three of these excellent JZ mics fit that description and I would be perfectly happy with any one of them as my “one and only” all-purpose mic.

QUESION: Do you have a favorite all-purpose mic? Share your thoughts and suggestions in the comments!
