    Feedback - Janet

    Hi, I'm working with a new artist and she's looking for the style of music shown in Janet's new single, Feedback.

    Generic Pop Vocal

    Hi, I'm going to be doing work with a female pop singer (Really generic... think Britney Spears or Paris Hilton type vocals). I'm wondering what the best microphone I can get (value:price ratio) for her voice. It's only demo work so I'm not looking for top-of-the-line. Thanks!

    Comparison of B1 and SM57?

    Is there any place that offers samples of the two mics? I want to see the difference in a starting condenser and a starting dynamic. If there arent, could someone explain how the difference sounds?
