Recording A String Quartet with Rode M5 in X/Y Coincident

This demonstration of the Rode M5 sounds pretty good.

I've own this RODE M5 kit and found them to be a great price but a bit metallic sounding. I tried them through a variety of tube pre's which helped soften the sound but still wasn't overly happy with the sound. They are a hell of a deal for the price though.

Which mixer to use with SP404 for beat making setup

Hello,

Could anyone point me in the direction of the type of mixer I should use with an SP404 for a beat making recording set up. I am after something reasonably cheap, doesn’t need heaps of inputs.

I’m hoping to be able to use the mixer to record/ mix a few more Mics into the SP404 mic in. I’m hoping to use this to have a few mics on the drums

An interesting array of mic choices. 

Aside from the beautiful guitar sound and stellar performance, what's most interesting to me is the use of a capo and the excellent intonation this guitar has.

What mics do you see being used here?

Enjoy!
