Hey guys,
New member here, want to say great site and awesome info. I found you guys while looking for info on components for my vocal chain. I wanted as clean and transparent a sound as I could afford for under a thousand bucks. What do you guys think of my choices?
Microphone: Rode NT1000 ($300)
Mic Pre: M-audio DMP 3 ($200)
Compressor: Behringer ($70)
Reverb: Lexicon mpx110 ($200)
Total from lips to mixer: $770
This all goes into a pre-existing behringer 8 channel mixer as do my keys (Korg N1 and Roland JV1010 module.) I am using the free version of Pro tools to record. I can only record 2 audio channels at a time, but that’s good enough for my needs, for now.
I also had to buy a good heat sink (Thermalright SLK800) and a few Panotech fans, my old setup sounds like a jet turbine when listened to through the NT1000 (HS and 3 fans, $83)
I am very happy with the overall sound, it is worlds better than what I had before (EV BK-1 mic with a Roland GP-16 guitar effects processor used for compression and reverb.)
Anyway, thanks…
