hey, i have kind of an off topic question, sorry for posting it here but i dont know any place for "homefilming" lol
a friend of mine and his mates recently tried themselves on doing short amateur films and stuff. and well the audio of the camcorder obviously sucks for picking up voice, so they asked me about what mic to buy.
i was gonna say that they should buy a sm57 (they're far from doing anything professional so that would be enough for their purposes) - but then of course they'd need a preamp before plugging it into their camera.
can anyone recommend me any preamps for this kind of business? or cheap mics with "built-in" preamps, if there is such a thing
or links to sources for this stuff would be great, thanks alot and sorry again for the off topic.
