hi there!
am choosing a new mic for my home studio (vocals & instruments), but the doubt got over me...
the choices are:
* RODE NT 1 A
* AKG C-2000 B
* AKG C-3000 B
* SE 2200 A
* Audio-Technica AT 3035
can anyone offer me a good "comparison test"? any other mic suggestion in this price range?
thanks

We need some shotgun mics to record a film. There is a limited budget of about 1g for audio equipment. Can anyone recommend some shotguns that will play well with a purely transistor-based preamp in the 300 dollar range? Thanks for any suggestions.

I went into my attic and pulled out a couple of my first mic purchases and I was wondering what my recording Guru's Think of the possibilities> I was also wondering...(I Feel so retarded for asking this)What the hell does the word pad mean on my mixing board and in these microphone reviews I keep reading?

Hello!

I once heard a comparison between an old ribbon and a new sennheiser, on voice, and was quite taken away with the natural, non-hyped texture of the ribbon. Alwaz wanted to have one since.

Now, being a bit impatient as i am i was looking at this :

Hello everyone, I was looking for opinions on the Neumann TLM49 and the M147 tube/solid state mic.

Sonically?

What Instruments did you get good results from with it?

Any cool techniques or genres it really fits into?

Anything else?

WHich one should i use that sounds the best and cost efficient?

Hi I'm a big Nicko Mcbrain (Iron Maiden) fan trying to identify his overhead microphones.

Are these overhead's Neumann KM84 with wind shields on them.

Or what else are they?

Thanks Nicko Fan

Can't display pic so you will have to follow instructions below.

Let me preface this by saying that some of this has been covered in other posts. However, as a beginner it would be useful to have a sticky post dedicated to Micing the different kinds on instruments. I would like to know which mics sound best on a particular kind of instrument, and how they should be placed.
