Alanis Morissette

"'Alanis really helped pave the way for a new generation of female vocalists, and her OM5 has been there right from the beginning. If you love good sound, you'll love Audix mics' says Scott Welch, Morissette's manager. Alanis uses the Audix OM5, her signature microphone since 1995."

"Alanis sings and plays harmonica into an Audix VX10."

"But [songwriter and producer Glen] Ballard’s latest project, an acoustic re-recording of Alanis Morissette’s Jagged Little Pill required techniques a bit more delicate. Ballard’s collaboration with Ms. Ironic on the original was both artists’ biggest commercial success, and they commemorated the albums’ 10th anniversary by revisiting the songs unplugged.

The acoustic instruments were captured at Westlake Audio Studios (where Ballard once jammed on the synth of Michael Jackson’s Bad) with his cherished standbys — a vintage [AKG] D12, and a trio of Neumann mics — a 49, 47, and 67. These went through outboard Neve 1073 preamp, a classic Neve BCM-10 'sidecar' console."

"Despite current trends, Alanis' band still prefers to play through amplifiers onstage instead of using isolated cabinets offstage or DIs. Pearson uses a variety of different microphones to get everything through the P.A. 'Each of the guitar cabinets is miked with a Sennheiner 409. On stage right, there is one Marshall 4×12 cabinet and a Fender 1×12, which is used for effects and loops. Alanis uses a Fender 4×10. On stage left, there is a Divided by 13 and a Matchless amp, which are both 2×12s.'"

"I've got an AKG C12 from the '50s, which I used for Alanis, and I've also got some of the gold reissue ones, which are remarkable and best for female vocals. While the original C12 I have can't be touched in terms of sound when it's in peak condition, it's very delicate — I'm constantly getting it worked on — and the reissues are quite comparable."
