Hi all,
I've just returned to recording after taking a two year break. I've bought a new MacBook (2GHz with 2Gig RAM running Logic) and a Presonus Firebox. The next purchase I need to make is a decent condenser mic. I've read a couple of the mic posts here but Audio Technica - which seem to be the most popular 'affordable' choice - are slightly out of my price range (ideally under £350 - even better if I can purchase for cheaper on ebay!). Can you guys recommend another model / make that's readily available in the UK?
The last mic I used that I liked was a Rode NTK - used for breathy "intimate" R&B / pop male tenor vocals. Does anyone have any similar suggestions?
Like I said, I've been out of the market for only two years but it seems that there's so much more out there that I don't know about. Any suggestions are welcome!
Thanks in advance (and sincerest apologies for my newbie question!)
