I have a small home studio, MAC running Pro-Tools LE and I'm looking for a good vocal microphone for under $300.00. I currently have a Shure SM57,
two Samson C02's and a MXL diaphragm condenser mic. Most of the recordings are in the classic rock to acoustic stuff. Any suggestions on a good vocal mic?
Thanks!

Yup, the SM57 with a foam pop filter. That's a better vocal microphone than anything else you have. Really. I'll take that over any of the other microphones you have listed, any day. Plug it into a good API preamp and amaze all of your friends. So, drop $500 and buy yourself a API 312/512/3124, they're all the same, no differences just great. Makes cheap microphones taste like lobster! Mmmmmmmmm, lobster, melted butter. My kind of rock-and-roll.

Hey! Who's going to the AES?? I'll see you there Friday through Sunday!
