Vocals in my studio. :) Nothing live. For the sake of argument, assume a reasonably well-treated room. I'm trying to get a better feel for pros vs cons generally of the 3 mics. ---------- Update ---------- Yeah that polar pattern graphic for a hypercardiod is.......interesting....

1. That is laughably incorrect. Not agreeing with someone or being interested in a suggestion at times (esp when I made that clear in general from the outset, like in that speaker thread) does not equate to "not caring" about someone's thoughts. If you're being so suddenly pissy now because I...

Not that I wasn't already aware of this, but wow what a flaming ahole you are. Just one of those guys it seems.

Probably because you listened to it through a highly inferior sound card, like the one in your PC.

I did answer but it was deleted. Apparently I'm not allowed to give my opinion on this site. Which btw agreed with camn's comments.

So no one wastes time typing, recaps here: Multi-Pattern Microphones: What, Where and How? | Shure Blog However given all that and a fair bit of researching generally I'm not 100% sure or convinced which is necessarily better than the other (and realize the answer can vary pending specifics)...

I undoubtedly will. :facepalm:

1996? Things are a LITTLE different now. :) And? It won't when you're done w/the final product. ? Afraid you lost me. In this case, I doubt it. For either of us. :) With you there. Necessary evil though, if you're a songwriter. This is easy enough to find if you do a search, but basically...

Haven't bought the keyboard I'll be recording with yet but rest assured it will have all necessary ins/outs, thx!

?? The more tracks i have, the more things I have (more instruments etc) which should cover up any hiss, I'd think, even if there is more in the background from a tech perspective.

Hence my paranoia about AIs with a little less - sigh

In my case it's possible silent/quieter moments in songs......and the 58 isn't exactly a "cheap" mic. Inexpensive, but near as I can tell quality enough that it should not in itself present an issue.

OK, thx, I guess I was just paranoid or not looking at it correctly, which I was in the first place. Somehow it seemed to me too easy maybe. :) I guess because it's a "direct" connection, unlike other instruments where you're capturing it via mic.

Yeah, but in at least some (and probably most) cases, what you're recording will be considerably louder than the hiss and so hiss at lower levels might not matter. I think. Course then maybe it wouldn't matter anyway.

Not quite sure I understood this as well as I thought, which wasn't saying a bunch in the first place :( OK assuming I have a keyboard and other equipment probably equipped necessary (AI, MIDI connections etc etc): Let's see: 1. I can record it MIDI-wise. eh. I might muck with that at...
