Sony C800GPAC through a Manley Slam

[london]

Hello! I just recently purchased a Manley Slam and was wondering how well it would work with the Sony C800GPAC. I'm sure it wont be bad, but I would really like a professional's opinion. I own 2 Blue Bottle mics with multiple capsules as well as 2 Neumann M149's 75th Aniversary's.I've tried them through the Manley and they all sounded great ,but I'm told that the Sony is a completely different animal.Can anyone tell me about this Mic's character? I've tried to do research and I haven't had much luck.Also I am usind an Appogee Rosetta 800 for the AD conversion into Nuendo.

ThanX! Hope you can help.
Mike

Plug it in and find out.......



I think you'll like it more than your Neumann's.........but to each his own...

I haven't used the bottle so I can't compare to that....

The Slam might take some of the character out of the mic though....I've ran it through a vari-mu with less than desirable results......but then again...other's love the vari-mu...

Plug it in and find out...
