grn Well-known member Dec 26, 2003 #1 what capsule should I buy if I'm on a budget and want to get the mk012's... I know there are three... which would be most useful for recording overhead for drums/acoustic guitar or mic'ing a room

H2oskiphil It needs more cowbell! Dec 26, 2003 #2 Most come with the cardioid capsule. That's the only one I have, and I use mine for drum OH's and acoustic instruments with no problems. The omni and hyper are a little harder to find. I don't have any experience with them. From what I understand, the REAL killer capsule is the LOMO LDC head. But it's expensive. And hard to find. But Harvey Gerst likes it. A lot.
