In an August 2020 article with "Sound On Sound" Gaga's mix Engineers Benjamin Rice and Tom Norris Confirm her vocal chain used consistently in her music: "I have been using the same chain on LG for years, which starts with her personal, vintage Neumann U47. The desirability is based primarily on the synergy of the microphones three sound-shaping components: capsule, tube, transformer. The condenser microphone capable of transporting both female and male vocal pitch, silently over low noise controlled voltage, was used by Frank Sinatra, who owned his own U 47. Ella Fitzgerald, Louis Armstrong, Bing Crosby, Tony Bennett and the Beatles also used the German made microphone to broadcast"

Another of the night’s big winners was Sennheiser user Lady Gaga, who stole the limelight on the red carpet as well as onstage, where she emerged from an egg to showcase her new song, “Born This Way,” with the aid of a custom chrome SKM 5200 transmitter topped with an MD 5235 capsule.
