Here’s a sound sample of the Electro-Voice RE20 with no cleaning or post-processing applied. You’ll hear it working through the Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 and the Yamaha MG10. The podcast episode sample was from PodCraft.

The RE20 is a premium dynamic microphone, optimised to record voice. That could be anything from voice-over work, to singing, or, in our case, podcasting. Dynamic & Condenser Mics It’s commonly said that condenser mics can offer better, more nuanced vocal recordings. However, their over-sensitivity can be a curse in the wrong environment. They also tend to be more fragile, and require a power source known as ‘Phantom Power’ to work. For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs. If an item can not be repaired, a similar alternative product or cash discount (as defined in this policy) will be offered One thing I think is important to mention is that this mic (like many quality dynamics), is very low output, so for the sound to be fully realised it needs to be driven hard with gain. For this reason I thoroughly recommend purchasing either a Cloudlifter or Triton Fethead alongside this mic. These products provide a clean gain boost by utilising the phantom power in your preamps (it does not feed the signal to your mic so there is no danger to your mic). Since I have done this it has made the sound of the mic even bigger and even when played at the same volume, the difference in fullness (and the re20 is already full to begin with) between with or without a gain boost is quite significant.

Features Electro-Voice RE20 Dynamic Cardioid MicrophoneThe RE20 was seen on television for the ten-year run of the fictional sit-com Frasier, starting in 1993. Title character Frasier Crane ( Kelsey Grammer) appeared to speak into the microphone to deliver psychiatry advice on talk radio.
