Yeah this is a better thread than some silly "best 4 unlimited budget" thread.
Bully!!! I'll drink to that ☼
Yeah this is a better thread than some silly "best 4 unlimited budget" thread.
I always think it's dumb when people make threads like these.
well this thread turned out well
I would choose 4 sm57's, then put them in a pillow case, beat the owner of village studios to death, and raid the mic locker there. Is that a legal answer (I said answer not offense )

Yeah, I agree, too.
I'd drive to the nearest Rat Shack, buy the first four mics I found, and then take the rest of the "unlimited budget" and see the world.

The nose took us to a fresh machair environment, where we could find discarded sea shells and distant barbeque smoke (smoked ham ribs cooking?). There was also considerable tar, some witch hazel, pencil cases and sherbet. The palate was a bit of a shock – that instant signature blast of lavender and parma violets; tar again, chalk and prosciutto – quite a salty finish. With water, we could identify the parma violets on the nose; also liquorice allsorts and ‘granny’s handbag’. The reduced palate was fresh, sweet and enticing; lots of confectionary, liquorice and salt. A curiosity dram from Islay’s oldest distillery.
Ok. So we have an unlimited budget for up to 4 microphones and bottles of scotch? I guess I'd get the 3 most expensive scotches I could find (I've never tried one, so I'd have to experiment) and an SM58 for all the recording.
Good strategy!!!! After consuming the scotch the SM58 will soung great! In fact, at that point a Mr. Microphone would sound great.
~☼☼~ Usta get a big laugh out of that commercial for the Mr. microphone.
Ah, Single malt tasting notes.
As mentioned before, I have a mate in the "Scotch Malt Whisky Society". I love visiting their site for the totally overblown...nay, ridiculous...tasting notes in their special bottlings. Just one example:
I used to think wine snobs were silly until I discovered whisky snobs.
By the way, those liquorice allsorts and granny's handback will set you back $315.
Me, I just like drinking the stuff!
I was just talking about that commercial today! One of my all-time favorites!
