ten fingers ten toes Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I say Shure SM-57 because I hate recording things so its really easy to just own one mic and deal with it. I bet loganfive and some others will chime in with other brands whose name you can't pronounce. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ten fingers ten toes Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 Me? No, I hate micing anything. I just own an SM-57 and stick it in front of stuff, if I doesn't sound good I run it through the DSP's. Eventually it will. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive shoved it in boxes, bags, pockets, left in in freezing cold cars, burnign hot cars, Ive smacked it on things, swung it around like a damn ninja weapon, and it still records just about everything "ok", which is all I care about.

b born droid Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 don't buy a 57. especially if you want to record vocals and an oboe. well you've gone and done it anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ten fingers ten toes Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 Because, this way he can record his oboe while exploding on a stack of dynamite and it will still record his cries for help afterward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Glass Plate Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 I still haven't gotten it, I think my friend has a C01U, sounded pretty nice, but didn't seem to fit on any of his mic stands, and he treats it with shit because of this, but then again, I'm not him, and don't treat my stuff like shit.

Guest analogue wings Posted January 30, 2007 Share Posted January 30, 2007 http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews...amson/C01U/10/1 USB mikes seem like a poor long term investment to me. A decent mike should last you 20-30 years. Can't see USB 2.0 lasting that long. And it's not like an external soundcard is exactly a huuuge inconvenience.

Guest feta lol Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 My friend is letting my use his Digital Multitracker, and I can record most stuff, but I'd like to record my Melodica, Oboe, vocals etc. Any suggestions? I'm on a pretty low budget 50-100 USD would be best. THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS A GOOD MIC TO USE WITH BOTH INSTRUMENTS AND VOCALS FOR UNDER A 100 BUCKS! -worlds most asked questions at guitar center Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest feta lol Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 im sorry to yell it's just that i got that question 5 times a day. i dont understand why som epeople think that there is some secret mic that is perfect for everything and only like 50 bucks. like there is some mic with a switch on that changes it from a condenser to dynamic. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
