In this image from the recent Arctic Monkeys show in Prague (Aug 2022), Alex Turner can be seen using the Earthworks Audio SR314 microphone
Used for vocals on "Sparkle Mountain", as specified in the project breakdown at 13:23.
I recorded the vocals with this mic. This is the Earthworks SR314, which is built for live use, but I do like it in the studio sometimes when I wanna go handheld. First of all, it has really good off-axis rejection, it's very directional, but also it reduces a lot of the noise from hands, being handheld. And I just like that sometimes when I'm recording a vocal where I want a lot of energy and I want to be playful and I don't want to be rooted in one spot singing to a mic on a stand, but I can, y'know, just move around, have fun, play and, so that's why I chose this mic to record the vocals for "Sparkle Mountain". I think it sounds great.
