That is also where I get mine . . . albeit in *somewhat* larger quantities :o

I add four strips of speaker gasketing foam tape inside the clip which grips the mics quite well, you might want to seek out something similar.
 
hey msh. just curious-- are you going to brand these in any way?
still mean to pick some up, but i have to get over a massive g.a.s. hangover first.
 
So mshilarious.....as I'm looking over these posts and slowly deciding to pick up some of your mics, I've come to this:

I'm looking for a stereo (matched) pair that will be used for acoustic guitar and drum overheads for the most part. Which mics will perform best for those 2 functions?
 
and msh...the bastard comment was just in good fun i hope you know...

ima get my clips from you and maybe a cardiod or two

You need to stop with the "slow" and just do it! These mics are crazy good for the price. I got a matched pair of the MSH-1O omnis and tried 'em on my Lowden acoustic guitar:



This is just the raw recording. No EQ adjustments, no compression, no NR. I'm pretty pleased.

And then over the weekend, I recorded my son's punk band. I hadn't tried micing drums for over 16 years and was feeling a little rusty. But I got out the MSH's and put 'em up as overheads, along with an Oktava MC012 on snare and an Audix D3 on kick. Spent about 5 minutes on mic placement, let 'er rip, and here's what I got:



I dunno, I thought it was pretty impressive. And I think the overall sound could have been much better if I had taken the time to optimize placement, etc. Oh yeah, and there are zilch phase issues (based on Auditions phase analysis tool.

bill--
nice soundclip! i'm going to pick up some msh's as soon as i recover financially from my weekend gearsluttery. i'm curious to hear your 2nd example, but the link is the same as the first one-- could you repost it? also what kind of signal chain did you use (preamps, interface)? thanks!

Sorry! I corrected the link in my post. It will now take you to the drum sample.

Signal chain is nothing fancy. M-Audio DMP3 mic pres into a M-Audio Delta 44.

I think the MSH-4 is the real star of the group.

hey,
i'm stealing and passing on travisinflorida's question: what is the deal on the msh-1k? is this a kick mic? what'd different about it and is it available separately?
i guess that was a series of questions-- sorry :o
 
Just ordered a pair of the omni's.
Hope they get here before next Friday.
Gonna record a Gospel group and Choir with the new mobile rig.
