Hello, I've been looking around the forum here for a while, trying to decide on the best vocal mic I can get for under $400. For a while, I was looking at the Akg c3000b, however, opinions on this forum to regard this mic as a steaming pile! Also, I've been looking at the Shure ksm27 because Shure has a great reputation. I've noticed a couple of other names on the board, such as : Rode nt3, nt1, nt1000, Audio Technica 3035, Marshall MXL 2001, and some Octava stuff. Some of these mics fall well under the 400 dollar mark, however, I've always thought that the more you spend, the better you sound. I'm in the process of building a home studio. My setup so far is a C-port package, Berhinger 1604a mixer, SM pro audio 8 preamp and Fostex pm-1s. I also have 3 sm 58s and 3 sm 57s and a couple other really terrible microphones. I try (underline try) to sing along the same lines as Chris Robinson, Robert Plant, Gregg Allman, Paul Rodgers, etc (<-in that range). I'm by any means saying I'm as good as these guys, so please don't start in with the fucking attacks--thanks. I'm just a dude trying to find a good mic for a middle of the road price.
Thanks,
Bill
