I am looking for a mic that will work really good on male pop/soul vocals and also be versatile enough to use on acoustic guitars and other miscellaneous instruments that will get a great sound for around $1000. Right now I am trying to decide between the AKG C414 II and the BLUE BLUEBERRY. Which of those two do you think would work best or if you have another recommendation let me know.

I got an AKG C-34 today (although I might have to return it as the pattern box is faulty) and I'm absolutely gob-smacked by it. I expected it to be good, but it's really wonderful. Another thing is that the diaphragms are in perfect condition (one thing that I'm always concerned about with old mics). I expected this to sound like old 451s, but the sound is very different.

I can upgrade for $100.
THank you

hey guys, I need a little help, I'm looking for a good large diafragm mic, specially for vocals and acustic instruments, and I've been looking at the AKG C414 and the Blue Bluebird, heard good things about both of them but I've just heard the AKG, what do you think of those two?.

thanx!

I need a mic to sing MPB/ POP music (MPB (música popular brasileira) is an acronym for Brazilian popular music.).

I am looking at a Sennheiser e845, e855 or AKG D880?

Thanks for any advice!

I have a friend who own the 7 piece mic kit.
He's not any other drummer, he took part at the Montreal DrumFest 2004
He said he likes the Shures or AKG but CAD are good ones 2.

did you ever tried one?

the price range vs quality seems good to me 45$ not 199.99$ as Shure or AKG.

I own a 421 i just love it.
what you think about all this?

Hi all,

Hi!

Sorry! if i start a new post about this mic...
but i could not see any thing about pipeorgan
with these microphones..

AKG C480 BCK62 omnicaps

What do you guys think about these microphone's.
I'll wonder how these works on pipeorgan?

Any one out there..who have try out this mic on a pipeorgan.

I know these are very good mics, but how does this series stand up to the big boys like Sennheiser MKH and Schoeps. The bodies over here are not significantly cheaper than Schoeps, but the capsules are less than half the price. I'm particularly interested in the omni capsules.

Thanks
John

Has anyone tried the AKG c1000's, will they work for drum overheads? what other uses do these mics have? are they good?
