I first became acquainted with REMIC microphones through my good friend Adam Booker.
Adam did a comprehensive video review of the REMIC bass mics in 2017, and I was mesmerized by how well the acoustic sound of the bass is reproduced.
When Trine from REMIC reached out to me and suggested that company founder Thorkild Larsen and I chat about the technology behind these mics, I immediately said yes. After all, we “bass geeks” are always curious about new and emerging technologies surrounding our instrument.
This is a fun conversation and a deep dive into the inner workings of mixing a bass. You’ll love it!
