Gig Gab - The Working Musician's Podcast

A Gear Gab to End The Year


Listen Later

In this Gear Gab episode of Gig Gab, Dave Hamilton starts with a deep dive into the world of bass drum microphones, with a spotlight on the Behringer BA 19A, priced at an accessible $79. Dave compares this budget-friendly option against its more expensive counterparts, the Shure Beta 91A and the beyerdynamic TG D71C. He meticulously highlights how the Behringer BA 19A stands up to these industry staples in terms of sound quality, build, and overall value. This segment is a goldmine for both budding and seasoned drummers, providing a clear perspective on whether the Behringer BA 19A is just a budget clone or a serious contender in the realm of professional audio equipment.

In the latter half of the episode, the focus shifts to two innovative products from Soundbrenner. First is the Soundbrenner Core, a multifunctional musical watch that combines a metronome, tuner, and more into a single wearable device. Dave explores how this gadget can enhance your practice and performance. Next, he reviews the Soundbrenner Minuendo variable earplugs, a must-have for any musician looking to protect their hearing without sacrificing audio clarity.

Remember, in the world of Gig Gab and beyond, “Always Be Performing,” no matter the gear in your arsenal.
