Nothing under $300 is worth much of anything in terms of classical recordings. Save up and invest in some quality transparent equipment.

I haven't used one, but the OktavaMod mics are praised far and wide. I certainly intend to get one eventually.

Another vote for the AT 40 series. I have the 4040, and it's a very versatile mic. I have fancier mics that I use for most vocals, but the 4040 is actually still used on quite a bit of vocal tracks, and works quite well, depending on the voice. As for the percussion/marimba/vibes stuff, the 4040...

I have the manual and original box as well.

Used, but works perfectly and has very few marks of use. PM for pictures. I'm asking $125 plus shipping. I think these are usually $300 new. in peace, kasey

i'll have a U67 please.

If you get one, at least get the XT-20. I use one (it IS my primary and only recording medium) and I get by just fine. I can't stand computers and currently cant afford a reel to reel, so for me it's great. I've had zero problems with it reliability-wise, though I might have been lucky. Though...

bump - down to $325

For sale; Cinnamon Brian Moore i81, the neck pickup has been upgraded to a Seymour Duncan Jazz. Other than a little nick on the upper side, it's in perfect condition and has been well cared for. The soft case will go with it - it's a very heavily padded case, i'm just as comfortable with my...

still only $26 if anyone's interested..

sure that'd be fine!

sage se-1, $600 each. or if you're up for DIY, Seventh Circle Preamps. They make API and Neve clones, the API clones people seem to like even better than the real API pres. (i just bought it, it should be here anyday... i am really excited). and those are really expandable for cheap.

sorry guys, thank you kojdogg! (is there a way i can fix that on my first post? I'm not very good with such things)

I hate to part with this mic, it's the best vocal dynamic mic I've heard (short of maybe an SM7). Most anyone you talk to will tell you it has a lot more clarity than an SM58, I'd certainly agree. I don't use it much anymore because I do quiet folk/pop songs, but if I were to record any rock...

preamps: seventh circle audio, hamptone, JLM baby animal, green mic pre, Altec 1566a mods mics: oktavamod, ... i'm going blank thats all I've got there. otherwise, check out schematics for DIY fuzz boxes and even some compressors (though those are pretty advanced).
