Differences between AKG C414 B-XL or AKG C414B XLII?
I'm looking at picking up one of these mics for vocals and guitar and am hoping I can get some information as to what the differences these two versions are? I looked back in the forum and couldn't find anything even though I swear RemyRAD talked about it at one point. I've got both mics at a really good price within about $5 of each other and just wondered which one I should choose.

Hi,
Fake CAD microphones?
I recently came across a seemingly great deal at musiciansfriend on a pair of "CAD" CTM-1000A capsule condenser mics for $99. The list price for the pair is $600, and the mics actual street price is $150 a piece. The deal seemed to good to be true, so I checked the CAD website but didn't find any mic with the model number CTM-1000A.

Best mic type and placement for my needs
I have a Fostex MR-8 MKII that I have been practicing my coffee shop act out on. I have a pair of MXL condensor mics that I am experimenting with, and I want to ultimately only use one mic through the Fostex and then out to an ampmonitor.

Microphone records too quietly!
Hi there, I bought an Audix i5 today, to use with my m Audio Delta 44 breakout box, to record my guitars and drums, as well as vocals. However, when I came home and tried to record, even though my level on my Delta was all the way up for input, the mic still recorded REALLY quietly! I had to turn my speakers all the way up, and I just barely heard myself.

MKH 80/0 as main mic - Samples, anyone?
Looking for some samples (or even comparisons with other mics) with the MKH 80/0 as main mic in AB, ORTF or similar setups in orchestral, organ, or choir recordings... Would like to get an impression.
MKH 20/40 etc. need not apply... :lol:

Ribbon Mic Mini-forum
Hi all;
I'd like to start a sane, professional, civil discussion on the state (and spate) of ribbon mics out there available today. It seems like every time I turn around, there's a bunch of new ones availabe - some brands I've just started hearing about, some even newer than that.
