So I used to have an MXL V63m that I put into an ART tube mp. This was not terrible. Ended up being used as a gaming mic for online gaming mostly...
Anyway, sold that stuff to get something different (not sure why)
Moving on.
Got a steal of a deal on an EV PL84 which is a condenser and looks like an SM58 kind of. So live stage condenser? Is this different from an SDC? Can I use it for closeup acoustic stuff like a regular SDC?
ALSO
Need an LDC or Ribbon (not sure which) for Vocals, Ukulele, and CELLO. My voice has the same range and timbre as cello, so I'm hoping that one mic can do both, and uke is so easy I could probably record it with a free mic and be happy.
Looking for something warm, not sterile (hence the thinking of ribbons), but versatile. I want something that I won't outgrow so soon, but can afford right now.
I want that perfect holy grail mic for cheap as cheap. Any thoughts?
Was looking at AT2020 and such, but I'm thinking it might be too bright.... Do I just use a preamp and post production to shape it to where I want it? Like amp modelers? Or do I need to spend $200 to get something worth having?
If the SM57 is the standard for dynamics and the RE20 is the "big brother" of sorts, what are their equivalents in condensers?
