I've finally got what you would call a full setup here in my house. It's spread over two rooms which makes me feel special. I think mics my be my weak point, which is why I'm putting this here. Make me a wish list ... something to aspire to. I keep almost buying mics then getting other stuff instead that comes up on special offers or ebay.
Here's my gear:
- Very good PC (which still isn't working!)
- Delta 44
- Soundcraft M12
- Behringer MIC2200 (used for DI purposes mostly)
- Yamaha MG10/2 (in my monitoring chain)
- A pile of Behringer DI100s from my live rig
Mics:
- SE Electronics SE2200 (budget LDC, seems decent but I'm too stoopid do describe sound)
- Shure 545 (USA-made, absolutely awesome on guitars!)
- Beyer Soundstar MkII
- Sennheiser E835 plus five E845s from my live stuff
Other stuff:
- Alesis M1A monitors
- Sennheiser HD280 phones
- Sennheiser HD202 phones
Instruments:
- Yamaha Clavinova
- Burns Marquee
- Westone Prestige 150
- Crafter acoustic
- Fender Mexican P-Bass
- My shite voice
- Vox AD15 Valvetronix
- Fender Roc Pro 1000 (does the two sounds that the Vox does least well)
So there you have it. I'm not recording drums at home at the moment, and I'm not sure I have found the right mic for my voice yet (but did enjoy using an AT4050 at uni recently). Where should I be heading next ... not the highest of high end gear, but I'm not buying any more cheap crap.
EDIT - I should say that time is now on my side, I have time and space to learn how to get better from what I have ... just we all need something to aim for and I don't yet!
