I am about to record a male vocalist who has the same tone, range and style as the main singer of the Gypsy kings.
I would like to know of a good mic in the $400. - $500 range. I will use UA 610 solo as my pre.
Merci a bunch!

hi there i was wondering if anyone had used these two mics and could tell me what one they think is best interms of

1. overall sound quality
2. gain before feedback
3.ability to cut through a loud mix (think rock and metal bands)

thanks

Greetings!

We are in need of live wireless vocal mics. We have a group that sings two-three times a week at our church and they normally have six or seven vocalists.

Right now they drag cables across the stage and things get bunched up, not to mention some of our microphones are on their last legs.

I am building my first project studio and I need some advice choosing a good tube based condenser mic for vocals.

my budget is roughly $500-$600 and while I usually prefer to buy used, the delicate circuitry of these mics makes me want to go for a new one so I can be sure there are no surprises.

I need a nice all around vocal mic, but with it mainly being used for several different female vocals. And as my topic of this thread suggests, I want some "nicer" then what I have which is a AT3035 and Beta 57a. Budget is $500.

Hey Guys,

Hi, I'm a sort of Dylanesque singer/songwriter that is recording at home & I am looking for a decent vocal mic for under $250. Considering a moded Oktava 319 - a ADK-A51 or a MXL v67i. Or wait to find a lucky deal ebay deal on a RODE .

hello, I'm a singer in loud metal/rock bands but i actually sing not shout or scream so my voice isn't shout level loud. I'm looking around for a good vocal mic for live use. i owned a Shure beta 58 sometime ago but sold it because although it did cut through a loud mix it sometimes sounded a little shrill or brittle on the top end.

I know this is such a difficult subject but i was just wondering if any one could give me some advice.

I currently have a AKG C3000 mic and a Behringer Ultragain Pro Mic 2200 and am not really happy with the sound, I would like something warmer.

Hi,

I recently just watched the film "Metallica - Some Kind Of Monster" and through the entire recording process, James Hetfield sings into this handheld vocal microphone in the control room instead of going into the booth...

It almost looks like he's holding a backwards gun sort of...

Anyone know what kind of microphone this is?
