Given that most people on this forum do a lot of location recording, I was wondering about mobile mic storage.

where do you guys think these stand up to the Neumanns, Gefells, AKG, AT's and all the other mics that get spoken to around here. My singer recorded his old album using a Dragonfly and it sounded pretty sweet. That, also coupled with the fact that Focusrite sells that deal with the Trackmaster along with the Baby Bottle for under $800, or something?

Hi all
I have a tube mic that intermittently makes a sputtering noise. I've had that before on other mics, but it was caused by condensation and easily fixed. I know a faulty tube can cause this as well.

If the above causes can be ruled out, is there another reason why this should happen?

Thanks

been looking around for mics lately, I have made my mind up about the dynamic mics I need.

And landed on AKG D112 and some Shure sm57`s.

Now for the condensers.
Dont know how many I`m gonna get.

But the Mxl mics looks tempting and extreemly cheap, will someone wake me up and tell me the real deal about theese mics.

are any good.

Hi,
I am going to try and track drums day after in my small recording room (10x10 feet). fortunately, the band listens to me and is willing to spend time and experiment (at least till the neighbours start yelling!).

the drummer set up the kit today and we tried a few Micing situations.

this is what I have :

I want to start a petition to start a separate section in this forum dedicated to mics. For all those out there that don't even know the difference between a condenser and a dynamic microphone. Lots of beginners come to this forum,, and if they truly want to learn the ropes, they're going to need to learn about mics sooner or later.

Hi All

got a budget of $1000-$2000 CDN

Most bands will be recorded in bars and isolating the kit in most cases is a R-PITA so in one sense the tighter the pattern the better

Any and all suggestions more than welcome including isolating the kit DIY style if possible

thanks

I currently run a small studio out of my house. I use Sonar 3 on a P4 PC. My mics include: Beta 58, SM57, KSM27, AT2020, PG81's, PG56's, Beta52. I use a PreSonus firepod for interface.

Alright here's the deal. As some of you know, i've recently bought an ISA 428. I've also upgraded the entire studio to mogami cables.( my wallet is hurting from the cables. ) Now i'm looking to buy a good vocal mic for Rap and also some R&B Vocals. I'm current;y using a RODE nt1000 for my main vocal mic.
