Which Microphone to purchase?

Forums

I have set up a sort of home recording studio in my bedroom and am looking for some small condenser mics to round out my collection for now. I have an AKG perception 400, and a d112, and 2 sm57s. I plan to get 2 small condensers to use as overheads, and also for acoustic guitar possibly. I am in need of some advice on what options I have.

Difference between a Flat Mic & a Warm/Colorful Mic.

Forums

I am curious many people refer to mics as being flat or warm or colorful. What does this mean. Some say flat is better some say it should be warm.

Does anyone have audio samples used with what one would consider a flat mic, and then the same done in a warm mic. This would be a great post especiialy for new people to the world of Microphones.

Thanks,

Blake

New to Recording - Need helping Picking out a decent Mic...

I am looking into doing some fairly serious Podcasting, and I am looking for quality. I have picked out a decent Preamp, that fits my budget and am now looking into mics. I am not going to singing into my Mic, Only speaking but I want the audio quality clear, and hopefully warm sounding.
