$6000 question

[PhilGood]

It's not the cost of high-end mics that makes them cool and fun.

It's that they're instruments just like a Les Paul Deluxe or Rhodes piano.

I don't get why someone wouldn't use the best-sounding mic or pre or whatever for any given situation if they have the ways and means.

Does a Hasselblad take better pictures than a Brownie??? I don't know. Both are fun to mess around with for different reasons. But the Brownie is probably better suited for the birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese.

I gave my kid an AKG C3000. I can't stand the sound of it. He thinks it's the greatest thing. He's doing podcasting with it.

Man, I'd love to play around with a Lawson or an AEA 44 knockoff. Or an M49.

Who wouldn't?????

I've been thinking about buying a C3000 just for the capsule and see if I could actually build a decent mic around it.

If I record something with 6 $1000 mics, will it sound as good as using one $6000 one?

and unfortunately music production isn't that logical...

using 10 mics on a single source isn't logical?

Oh, come on!

Just create an impulse of the $30k mic and all your $30 mics will sound like gold.

What does $30,000 worth of gold sound like?!?

And what's the best <$100 mic to record it?!?

Some day I might have $30,000 worth of gold at my place and I'll want to be prepared!!

You know guys, someone who doesn't understand sarcasm could have a really tough time in here

Is Sarcasm a new recording technique? And why am I always the last person to hear about this stuff?

So, whats the best mic under $100 dollars to record sarcastic comments on?

BTW, If it makes any difference, I'm planning on rapping them (the sarcastic
comments).

If two trains leave chicago with 2 $1000 mics, and another from ogdenville with one $12,000 mic, when is the perfect sound attained?

well, I was refering to the quanitity vs quality equation...

Is Ogdenville acoustic or electric?

Are the Trains running in Series or Parallel?
