My band plans to record a demo soon so I'm in search of some decently affordable but good mics for micing my drummer and my guitar cabinet. We plan to DI the bass and keyboard and dub in the main vocals later using an AT 2020 mic.
My current gear setup includes:
Fostex VF160ex recording unit (8/16 track)
Behringer UB2222 mixer (using it's pre's only - insert outs as direct outs)
AT2020
SM58
Sennheiser e835
Some other cheap mics...
I'm thinking three 57's (one snare, two overheads) and one Beta 52 (kick) for the drum kit, and one 57 for the guitar cab? Is this a good set up or should I be looking elsewhere? I know the pre's on the Behringer aren't the best so I'm wondering if they'll spoil the sound of any good mic...
