Footnote:

As the market for big studios has collapsed over the past decade, I've seen quite a few mic lockers that would make you weep. I mean shelves and shelves of the most precious vintage models just gathering hypothetical dust. Many hundreds of thousands of dollars of mics that no one has a real use for, but that the owner can't bear to part with. There must be dozens of studios around the world that had a couple of hits in the 70's or 80's, went out and bought an SSL, a bunch of M49's and C12's, gumball and pinball machines... I suppose these will eventually mostly wind up on Ebay.

UncleBob58 Sat, 11/04/2006 - 11:18

I don't need much as I do mostly audio post editing. These mics are for ADR and recording Sound FX:

I'll be getting the Sennhieser 416 shotgun in the near future.

MadMax Fri, 11/10/2006 - 18:30

SCOOOOORE!!!!

Snagged an RCA 44B, great cosmetic shape, unknown working condition, with what appears to the original 2 conductor (button) connector/cable for under $270!!!

Man, am I one HAPPY fella!!!

Gonna' look up how to re-wire for XLR and balance the thing... if it looks like too much of a PITA to get working, it'll still probably worth it to send to Wes at AEA isn't it?

Been searching for one of these dudes' for like 3 years... that I could afford. WOW!!!

Any ball park idea what Wes charges to completely refurb a 44B?

Scoobie Fri, 11/10/2006 - 20:37

Hey MadMax..........
Where I rent equipment. They get new ribbon put in mic's at..........................................
Talking Dog Transducer Company, He performs Mods on Pre's and Ribbon mic's. I would hate to say what I thought it would cost. It's not cheap, I'm sure you no. I can find out more info if needed.

I got the use of a AEA R44C for the next 5 days!!!!!! SWEET
Along with a A-Designs MP-1 . Also a Buzz ARC1.1 that I'm going to try.
Going to Nastyville to pick them up Saturday.

Peace..........................Scoobie

anonymous Sat, 03/03/2007 - 11:18

Just a suggestion: could we also include what we tend to record - I think that would make this thread even more useful... :)

As for me, I work with about 40% classical, 30% jazz, 30% rock... I have included my most common usage - I'd love to have suggestions for uses I don't have listed!

AKG C414TLII x2: vox, overheads, stereo
AT 8533 x3 (clip-on mic): horns, toms
AT 4049 x2: stereo
AT 4051 x2: stereo
3035: ?
Earthworks QTC-1 (omnis, matched pair): stereo
Earthworks SRO (omni): center mic in Decca tree
Earthworks SR71 x2: stereo, guitar amps
Beyer M500N: piano spot mic
EV RE20: kick
Crown PZM6D: inside piano lid (closed)
Neumann U87 x2 (from the 70's): solo vox, choirs
Neumann SM69 (from the 70's also - stereo mic): stereo, choirs
Neumann KM84: acoustic guitar, strings
Neumann KM184: acoustic guitar, strings
Shure SM58 x4: live solo vocal
Shure SM57 x2: anything!
Shure BETA 87 (wireless): live lead vocal
Shure BETA 52: kick
Shure BETA 56: toms, snare, trombone

Simmosonic Sat, 03/03/2007 - 20:36

The mics I regularly use (a combination of mine and my recording buddy):

2 x DPA 4006TL transformerless omnis (stereo kit)
2 x DPA 4015 wide cardioids (stereo kit)
2 x DPA 4023 cardioids (stereo kit)
3 x Schoeps CCM4Lg cardioids (a matched pair and another)
3 x Schoeps CCM8Lg bidirectionals (a matched pair and another)
1 x Royer SF24 active stereo ribbon microphone

We record acoustic music and find the mics listed above to be very good for this application.

Well...it's an old, but revived thread. I'll kick in for giggles here.

Some of the mics are a friend's but I have ready access to any of them.

Schoeps:

CMC 6 (6 bodies)
MK2s (2 caps)
MK4 (2 caps)
MK 21 (2 caps)

Gefell:

KM184 (2)
TLM 103

AKG:
C391B (2 - both with omni caps)

Soundelux:
U195

Beyer:
M130 (2)
M160

Rode:
K2
NT4

AT:
4040 (2)

Oktava:
MK012

Audix:

SCX-25 (2)

Here are some mics that are on my short list:

1 more full round of Schoeps (a tad expensive, so I'll put this at the bottom of the list)
2 more 193s
MBHO mics (just a few)
many...many...many more.

Of course, the above list is primarily geared towards classical and some jazz.

Cheers -

J.
