Yeah-- probably the same mics that get recommened when people ask about mics for rock vocals (the EV RE-20, Shure SM7B, and Heil Sound PR-40) would all work well, but I can't say from personal experience.omtayslick said:

This thread is awesome-- people are getting all worked up about a question that wasn't even asked this time-- rather at the fact that it is asked at times, and even dares to exist

honestly, i dont give a shit about rep, because i chill in the cave and its plentiful there
im about to do some major hatin' right now.
this guy comes into my store looking for pro audio gear... he says he has a really good mic but he can't remember what it was called, except that it was a condensor and he paid a 'G' for it.
if i paid a 'G' for a mic, i would know the fucking name...
long story short, his pro rap studio added a Behringer FCA202 to it, courtesy of a slumping salesperson (myself).
what a pro.
he came back yesterday and wanted to 'get his voice into the booth'..
he meant a talkback system.
so i sold him a cheap $20 chinese dynamic mic, a cable and a tabletop tripod stand, and told him how to create another channel in his pirated software and just route it to the headphones but not to mix it into the song.
what a pro. with his 'G' mic that he don't know what it is, and a behringer interface and pirated software.... oh yeah, and his new Mikhlalooksdkfj mic.
he was previously using nextel walkie talkie crap to talk to the guy in the booth... i thought that was a rather interesting idea.. except when they where tracking and then you hear, bleep bleep, yo wuts good...

pikingrin said:Okay, so this is probably fueling the fire more than I could ever know, but after reading through thread after thread of "mic for rap vocals" questions and other threads flaming them for being redundant it dawned on me.
A friend of mine uses a cheap ass MXL 990 and it sounds great. I can post a link to his stuff if you would like examples, but I don't really think it's necessary. I'm not trying to rep him, I don't really listen to rap at all, the point in this case (or any) is that it is not the mic but the performer and the mix, not to mention the preamps, etc...
Isn't that what Jay-Z uses?Seeker of Rock said:
