Watch this interview to hear Paul talk through what he's looking for when it comes to microphones and find out if our KSM Studio Collection meets his needs. 

We invited a band made up of a vocalist, drummer, horns and piano to showcase our mics in a number of different use cases. Watch the performance below to hear how the KSM8 captures vocal clarity, the KSM313 handles the horns, and the KSM137 does justice to both the drums and piano:
