This is kind of two posts in one (?) First, Ive never had a ribbon mic and Im curious about them. I would like to know what ribbon mics do you guys use and what do you use them for. Theyre known for being quite dark and colouring the sound, so I guess you should use them wisely for specific needs.
In other hand, moresound suggested the MXL R144 as a good entry level ribbon mic. It goes new for about 80 dollars on ebay. What do you guys think of it? I have never used an MXL mic and I know they are famous for being quite cheap sounding but with some good models. Any other suggestions? Im willing to spend more ($160 and under)
Thanks!
