You might want a dynamic mic. If you have a lot of noise from in or outside you home, a dynamic mic (with a cardiod or hyper-cardiod pattern.... see the big mic thread) will be much more friendly as far as NOT picking up every little unwanted background noise. Also better, most of the time...

Absolutely. I found it was always much better to do bouncing to another (preferably digital) recorder with my portastudios. Go into the computer as hot as possible without clipping and do the same on the bounce back to tape. It may event help to bounce through a compressor or outboard EQ (or...

Could try this for flavor..... I've had good results by taking the Snare/Kick/Toms tracks and routing them to a subgroup and then compressing the group pretty agressively while NOT compressing the individual tracks......... then floating the group back into the mix up under the rest of the kit...

Thirds on the Groove Tubes. I have a pair of the MD-1b's and they're great. -mike

I have an M69... ...and also think its a good amp mic. A lot smoother than an SM57 ...... but sometimes the grit of a 57 on the grill is just what the doctor ordered IMO. I've also used it with good results on snare. Needed some EQing but the main thing was that the M69 has a very tight...

A different Acoustic guitar app..... ..... I used to use my CAD E200 in fig 8 all time for recording acoustic guitar. I would sit the guitarist (mostly me) in front of a wooden door (or other reflective surface) and place the mic inbetween the guitar and door (usuallly just inside the neck...

Thats true, Brich. I actually have the E200 also .......was looking for a second one (at that price). FYI ..... you can get NiCad batteries for the mic from Radio Shack and it can then run without phantom power. They have a slightly higher output than the CAD factory batteries but work great...

Thats true, Brich. I actually have the E200 also .......was looking for a second one. FYI ..... you can get NiCad batteries for the mic from Radio Shack and it can then run without phantom power. They have a slightly higher output than the CAD factory batteries but work great. Just make sure...

Dang Birch... so your the one who scooped up the E200. I was just a little too late. Oh well........ Well I did get an M179 from That_Abbot and it got here VERY fast and VERY well packed and in like-new condition. Also had the added bonus of the blank warantee card. -mike

Glad to hear the plugs for the CAD. I just got That_abbots M179 today..... extremely well packaged and with the blank warrantee card!!..... cant wait to ring it out tomorrow. I listened to it a lot on TheListeningSessions and it really stood out to my ears. Might just have to pick up another...

The M179 arrived today (super fast) and was very well packed and is in brand new condition. With the WARRANTEE CARD!!! Bonus!!! I'm looking forward to giving the mic a thurough workout over the next couple of days. Nice doing business with you. -mike

Spam or not.... ...hopefully that EQ is still up for grabs. Thanks for the link. -mike

I'll snag it. PLease check your PM. -Mike

Paypal sent. To above email. Thanks. -mike

I believe it's frequecy response thing. I have an RNC and it does work good on guitar and vocals ..... especially SuperNice mode. It does not work well on bass in my opinion. Low end signals just mess it up. I cant tell you technically why but it does. You cant really slam the RNC. It needs...

Of course it will. But so what? That set up will give you a particular sound. It will sound different than 2 M179's, 1 Fig-8 and one Card. Try both set ups. The mic police are busy at the Mtv VMA music awards show anyway. What...... waddayamean previously taped?? -mike

The Studio Projects unit seems like for cheap. The VTB-1 I believe. $125. Musicians friend has the Art Pro Channel for $300 (I know out of specified range but only a little). Thats supposed to be good if you dont use the tube and has useable EQ and a descent compressor. Or find and old Tascam...
