Amy Winehouse's Microphones
Used for vocals on Back to Black, as stated in a February 13, 2014 Facebook post by sE Electronics, which features this video of Winehouse using the microphone to record a stripped-down version of "Love Is A Losing Game".
Remember our original sE2200a? Amy Winehouse used it to record her vocals on the Back To Black album. She also used it on this session. A great voice truly missed...
#throwbackthursday
The product description for the microphone's successor, the sE2200a II C, specifies the original as Winehouse's main vocal mic, as can be seen on old product listings from zZounds and Performance Audio.
The SE Electronics sE2200a II Cardioid is the single pattern version of the recently launched sE2200a II Multi-Pattern. So why change the classic sE Electronics sE2200a mic which has been used on so many classic tracks and albums such as Amy Winehouse's 'Back To Black'? The sE2200a was Amy's main vocal mic.
The microphone that was used most often to record Amy Winehouse was the U47.
In this live performance on Later with Jools Holland on November 2003 Amy sings into a Shure Beta 58A.
You can see it clearly at 1:57.
go to 54:28 and you can clearly see she is using a wired sm58 live
You can see Amy Winehouse using the EV RE20 RE-Series throught the entire video.
Used for vocals during the Daptone sessions of Back to Black, as is visible in ca. 2005 archival footage shown at 3:45 during this November 29, 2018 interview with Daptone founder and engineer Gabriel Roth/Bosco Mann.
Amy Winehouse used the Neumann U87 while working on her album Back to Black, as confirmed by an article on Reverb.
Amy Winehouse is known to have used the Audio-Technica ATM710 microphone. This is confirmed by her audio engineer, tour manager, and tour consultant, Dave Swallow, who stated, "We were trying out a lot of different mics to achieve more warmth in the lower end, and found an old Audio-Technica ATM89R, which sounded perfect but was discontinued. Audio-Technica suggested the new ATM710 vocal condenser from the new Artist Series. I just love it. It has the tone and response of a mic like the AE5400, but with the off-axis rejection of a good stage dynamic; it’s smack in the middle of the two – just perfect." This statement was sourced from an ETNow.com article titled "Audio-Technica Endorsee Amy Winehouse Sweeps the Board at GRAMMY Awards."
