Hainbach’s #1 mic!

BM9 takes the top spot.

Berlin based electronic music composer and performer, Hainbach, recently revealed his top 5 microphones from his collection, and the BM9 was #1.

“Over the 30 years I have been into recording sound I have assembled a small but varied locker of microphones. I always tried to balance utility and price, so I can record anything in a “good enough” way without overspending. In this video share my top 5 microphones for studio and location recording with you. There are vintage classics here by AKG, Neumann and Sennheiser, but also usual and even new mics. I also talk about some very special mics even the die-hard mic-heads among you might not know. My hope is that this will be an inspiration when you choose which mics to add to your collection.” 

“Extinct Audio’s BM9, as a matched stereo pair, is my absolute favourite microphone in my studio”.

What a fantastic honour – thank you!
