Hi all,
I am a singer seeking to begin recording in the hopes of making something I can distribute, first to family and friends and hopefully later to a wider audience. I am classically trained and sing classical, sacred, and contemporary music (read film, aka Disney haha). I'm looking for a good microphone that will allow me to record myself with good quality to later mix with tracks that I will be receiving from friends I'm collaborating with.
I've narrowed my search to the following options:
MXL 770 Cardioid Condenser Microphone B&H # MX770
CAD GXL-3000 Multi-Pattern Studio Condenser Microphone B&H # CAGXL3000
Tascam TM-80 Studio Condenser Microphone B&H # TATM80
Could anyone please give me their thoughts and opinions about the above mics? I'm an absolute novice to this, so any input would be appreciated. I realize that I would also have to invest in an external sound card and some other equipment, but selecting a microphone seems to be a good first step. Oh, I should mention I'm not interested in USB mics, but if anyone has some other microphone as a suggestion that might fit my needs, I'd love to hear about it.
Thank you for your help!
