Hi guys,
Im new, so go easy
Im looking for a half-decent mic for doing vocals and bass, possibly e-guitar too.
I've been thinking of the Apex 435, im not expecting anything amazing, but I can get it for £40, and it seems to get some pretty good reviews.
And, well, anything is better than the Behringer dynamics we've been using (X1800S i think? ultra cheap, 3 in a pack job).
I've got some fairly decent gear (for low-mid home studio stuff )
Presonus Firepod
Presonus Eureka Mic Pre
M-Audio Tampa Mic Pre
And a host of bass amps, cabs and guitar amps and cabs.
Our drummer has an e-kit (Roland TD-3), which we use along with EZDrummer. And we have started recording the bass and guitar direct and using Ampeg SVX and Amplitube 2 (respectivley).
And its really time i looked into getting a niceish mic! (the behringers were "ok" (especially considering the price) ), but they arent cutting it.
Im thinking of getting the Apex 435 and then maybe down the line getting the Apex 460 tube mic and modifying it (have read great things about the modded ones).
Anyone have any suggestions other than the 435?
Cheers guys
- Will
