    Drum Mic Madness!!

    PS - just for the record, most all my drum choices have stayed the same since I originally posted this, but my tom mics have changed. I still occasionally use the CAD's on toms, but now my preferred tom mic is the Michael Joly modded Oktava 219PE. Similar in a lot of ways to the CAD's, but...

    Drum Mic Madness!!

    Ha! Just found this thread again.... Lots of great comments! Thanks! I don't think there was any direct intention to do "the Bonham Shuffle" Bguzaldo. But I have to agree that Craig is an amazing drummer. I guess you have to be to play with The Magic Band, but I just love his "normal"...

    How should I know. I've never heard one. I'm on this thread (originally at least) to see what people's thoughts were. I'm afraid most of the actual users have probably fled for thier lives by now......:laughings: So you'll have to tell me if it's optomized and compromise free. You seem to...

    Size and/or saving a few parts???? Not something I want designers of my mics concerned with. But hey, that's just MY perspective. I'm sure there are people out there that actually care greatly about that. So, I'm with philgood. Let's get back to the 2003a. Anyone had the opportunity to try...

    Ironically, based on aforementioned tech talk, I have found the fethead doesn't like certain phantom power, even when delivering a full 48v. (Yes, I grabbed my multimeter & checked at the mic.) My tech told me why once. I forgot. When they work, they work great. I love mine. They don't...

    Easy there msh, you're showing your age. I'm 100% confidant my grandfather said the same thing about overdriven guitar amps. :D The anti-aliasing thing is a trend, and it's growing very quickly. I know what you're saying, but if there's a way to break, manipulate, fry, or otherwise mutate...

    PS - In case you haven't noticed, I (like the most creative people I've run across) REBEL against rules. As soon as you tell me : I can't put verb on a Kick Drum, can't have a bone dry vocal, can't put distortion on the violin section, can't put drums in the L channel and Vox in the R, can't...

    No, I'm not being purposely obtuse, and I never said you weren't technically "correct". I suspect what you say is in fact industry standard "correct". However, I find incredible beauty, creativity, and "outside the box" ideas in "screw up's". And by putting your industry standard into force...

    I say let the market decide. My personal mic preference may or may not be in line with the general mic buying public. If they think it's a POS as you do, then it will die an untimely death. On the other hand, I'd say it looks to be becoming something of a cult classic. I've used one or two...

    That is certainly your opinion, and you're welcome to it. Are you trying to save the rainforest with a few less milliamps consumed or something? I'm for not telling designers - you or otherwise - how to do their jobs. That's the best way to come up with innovative products. Perhaps you...

    There are ignorant people everywhere. You can't design around that. IMO, a designer should design for his/her VISION, and let the chips fall where they may. The world does not need any more rules that designers must conform to. To design for the lowest common denomenator (cheapo mixers with...

    LOL 30+ 57's......WOW! I'm not sure I could figure out what to do with that many. It would fun to try though. :laughings::laughings: I'd probably start using them for white elephant gifts or for paperweights or something......:drunk:

    You mean TODAY?? :D:D:D:D I'd have to check I guess. Just got 6 more mic's from Michael 2 MJE-K47H's (LOVE those) w/ 2 modded 991 bodies for the above. A MJ modded fathead (But I already had that so I guess it doesn't add to the total.... And my ABSOLUTE NEW FAVORITE MIC - a Joly modded...

    I suppose I fit into that category to some degree. I have a lot of expensive mics, and some very inexpensive mics that have been modded. Before answering, it might be worth considering why many professional guitarists that I know own well over 200 guitars? Why? You can only play one at a...
