Hi Guys
I am currently doing a bit of recording for a few bands. Its a humble studio with only electric drums triggering superior drummer, bass and guitars are all recorded dry through a pod x3 and processed In the box. (The only thing use mics for at the minute are vocals and acoustic guitars)
The only mics I have are SM58s which i have from gigging and 2 SM57 copies - the results so far have been Decent enough.
Vocals: The Sm58 has been fine so far but most of the vocalists I have worked with have had powerful rocky voices. I fear that when I get a female in to record or someone with a more gentle voice that the Sm58 wont cut the cheese and I may need a condenser mic.
Acoustic Guitar: Currently recording semi acoustics using both the 1/4" output on the guitar and one SM58 then blending them together. Results so far have been disappointing despite it being a great sounding guitar.
If you guys have any recommendations on mics for the job - (Or one mic that could do both) I would greatly appreciate it. I have spend 200 - 300 euro to spend. I need a pop filter and Reflection Filter too though.
Thanks guys
