All I know is that I need some mics. From the limited understanding that I have, I know that there are two types of mics : Condenser Mics and . . . okay well I forget the other one, and they probably are more. Any clarification on this would be greatly appreciated. What kind of mic would I need for recording vocals and what kind of mic would work the best for recording the cleanest sound samples from a wide range of sources? I have an electric condenser mic (the SONY ECM-MS907) that I bought for $100 along with a Sony portable minidisc recorder that I had intended on using to go out and sample some sounds, but now I am thinking that I might want a higher resolution mic (even though I haven't even attempted to use my current setup yet!). The mic I have for the minidisc has a frequency response of 100- 15,000 Hz if that helps you decide how good it is for professional use. So should I shop for another mic to replace this condenser mic that is best used for recording __________, or would I be able to use that mic but just buy the other kind of mic that is used more appropriately for recording ___________? Who can give me their two cents of mic specifics, mic brands and just overall mic background!!!??? Any feedback is greatly appreciated!!!
P.S. In case it is relevant I also have a Mac with logic Audio, maxed RAM, a keyboard controller, and plan on getting Aardvarks' Direct Mix (IF THEY EVER RELEASE IT!!!). Now if I could just figure out what kind of mics I need. . . . .
THANKS!!!
