I am assembling gear for recording my grand piano in my living room. The room acoustic is pretty good, fairly well damped but I think sufficiently live for a pleasing sound. I don't really want to spend too much, certainly no more than $1500. I will be using the Focusrite Sapphire with my MacBook Pro.

[Edit: I forgot to say that for near-field monitoring I am using the Blue Sky EXO.]

Hello,

I want to buy the http://www.rodemic…"]RODE Podcaster[/]="http://www.rodemic…"]RODE Podcaster[/] microphone. The specification said that it has built-in pop filter.

Hi all, I hear a lot of differing opinion about this microphone.

Some really like the mic and some don't. Some call it crystal clear and I have
heard some suggest that it is thin and harsh sounding.

I guess I need to hear one for myself but I would like some owners of this mic to let me know their opinions.

Thanks

I tried it with all my pres and it seems to sound better with the Summit 2BA-221 over the UA LA 610 and Great River.

Not that I have a good singing voice, but the other pres don't seem to like the RODE.

Opinions on a better for me mic?

Any experience with Studio Projects mics?

Hi. I'm looking to buy another mic to add to my collection and am trying to decide on whether to go for the new RODE M3 or MXL V67g? I will be mainly using it for vocals. I already have a RODE NT1a, Studio Projects B1 and T.Bone RM700 (ribbon) and am able to borrow Shure SM57's and 58's. Which would you recommend as a good option for another colour?

Thanks

hi all, i'm in the market for a pair of small diapragm mics, i'm wondering if anyone has advice regarding RODE NT5 vs Peluso CEMC6. This will be my first pair of SDC's, so they need to be pretty versatile. Mainly acoustic guitar and drum overheads/room.

Hi. I'm looking for a new vocal mic to record a mezzo soprano gospel singer (Aretha Franklin style) because I found my RODE NT1a and Studio Projects to be a little harsh and brittle on the top end.
I've narrowed my choice of mics down to these :-

MXL V67g
KEL HM-1
T.Bone RM700, Cascade Fathead 2, Nady RSM4 (same mic)
Shure SM57 or Sennheiser E840

i've been waiting to get my hands on a matched pair of SDCs for a while, but haven't been able to get anything yet due to my inability to choose a set and/or a budget. i think i've pretty much narrowed my pricerange down and i've gotten 2 sets of mics that i've looked at: se electronics se1a and RODE nt5. has anyone used these sets before that can offer some advice on what i should pick up?
