cheapo wannabee sm58
C3000B
sm57
and some philips toy-mic

Coming up: matched pair, probably octava mc012's and something for kick. Don't know which one. Maybe 421. (Used it once and got very good result, and you can use it on more than kick and bass...)
 
Let's see...
2x AT4033
1 AKG C-3000B
1 GT AM-52
1 Octava MK-319
3 Apex 420
2x Octava MK-012
2x AKG C-1000s
2x Tascam PE-80
2x SM-58
6x SM-57
1 AKG D-112
1 Shure 55SH (which I discovered works really well on guitar cabs)
1 EV PL-80
Plus a whole bunch of cheesedick mics I've accumulated over the years.:D
 
hmmmm.......
2 x sennheiser 421
1 x AKG D112
1 x SM 57
1 x AKG C 531
1 x Crown PCC (phase coherent cardioid)
1 x electro voice 664
1 x AKG D 72
2 x dixon 1604


i know the last 2 are kinda cheesy, but they dont sound terrible on toms or guitar cabs. i need another 531 to even it out, and also a large diaphragm, maybe an AKG C 3000
 
Shure
SM57 x 4
PE10 (or something like that)
Bg 4.1 x 2
KSM32/SL
coming soon: beta 91
Rode
NT3

Oh yea and one hartman that came free with a cheapo PA
 
Maybe I should get...

...a locker.

On my mic shelf:

- SM57
- SM58 Beta
- MXL 1006

The last one I call "General Mike", not for it's applicability in all situations but because in the catalog and on the website and even in the brochure, it has a pretty, champagney kinda color, but when you get it home and out of the box it looks like something from army surplus. Has that Desert Storm look to it. Or maybe something Rommel might have used for his vocal tracks, if he couldn't afford something better. It's my first large diaphragm consdenser (budget restraints, of course) and I'll be interested to see how it works.

Peace
 
I guess I get the award for most humble equipment:

1 cheapie Samson SM-58 knockoff
1 Marshall Electronics V-67G

And that's all folks... for now.
 
I find I'm enjoying the sparse setups as much as those with the full selection...

no big suprise that the SM57's are present in almost all


Maybe that's the universal starting point....

So, you wanna do some home recording? Ok, first thing you do is buy this SM57, and build everything else around it.

What a lot I got!? . . (humble)

Well . .

2 x AKG C1000 S's
2 x AKG C2000 B's
3 x AKG D12 E's (quite old dynamics, but still good!)

I 'would' like a pair of AKG C414's . . Mmmm

For the kinda recording I do, ie, jazz, choral and some classical
(not orchestral) i get good results . . Using the C 2000 B's for
piano and the others for other things! . .

The old D12 E's are good for brass, trombone in particular, also
have a pretty good bass performance!

I always though bass was a kind of fish?!

U kinda get the impression I like AKG mikes then? . .
Perhaps I need to experiment or get out more?

Byee..
