did a search and couldn't realy see it mentioned anywhere on here so I thought I might share the good news.. http://gearslutz.com/board/showthread.php3?t=38196

Some people use them on snare.. aparently John Feldman uses them on kick... but then again he usualy drum replaces so it's kind of irrelevant. I imagine they'd do fairly well on a guitar amp but I can't back that up

when I do mic hats I use beyer m201's or oktava 012's... mxl 603 would be another good choice

M201's are great.. Theres a venue I do live sound at sometimes that has two and they always go straight on snare and hats when I'm there.. I've used one of a guitar amp live and it sounded pretty damn nice, but due to it being live I didn't have the chance to compare it directly to anything...

I love it when people make a big fuss about how something in electrical design is crap... and have obviously not done any research.. There are alot of reasons to use external power supplies.. mainly to do with sheilding and grounding.. I'm not right up on it myself to be honest.. but I do know...

Snare = M201 Toms= 421's Kick= atm 25 overheads = v67's at the moment :(

Okay... my question is about how stereo linking on compressors works... Okay... on a stereo linked comp.. is it just two channels with linked settings.. or is the actual compression linked... that kinda sounds confusing so I'll use an example... say I've got a mix running through it and a huge...

I'd sujest an Audio technica atm-25. They're alot more neutral than the other mics mentioned and can get a wider variety of sounds. The other mics are good but they're all very modern rock sounding.

The NTK will sound considerably better even through the mackie Pre's.. The NTK's are pretty nice mics, especialy for male rock vocals

I'd sujest getting a condenser and using only the pickup in your fold back.. but both in front of house.. If you do end up using a dynamic I'd probably shy away from the 57 on accoustic. Some people like them on there but personaly I can't stand the sound they give an acosutic.. I'd sujest a...

Have you tried a B1 on toms dude?... I havent.. but I've been told by alot of people they're great

yeah I was aware of the other faq, but I think that having something actualy at the top of the forum and with an obvious name of what it is would make a big difference

Okay.. I thought this would be a good idea to keep the amount of these type of questions down.. I've just done this off the top of my head so I'm sure you'll all have heaps of sujestions to change it and stuff Kick: Audio technica Atm-25 (versatile), Shure Beta 52 (excelent for heavy music)...

201 on snare is great... interesting about the guitar thing.. I've never actualy tried it.. but thinking about the characteristics of that mic I can imagine it would be nice

getting more ram Will not effect your sound quality. get yourself a new interface :)
