Condenser Microphone Clip
got any reccomendations for drum microphone kits for recording?
Q: Got a budget of $150-200. I’d really like a 7 piece w/the 2 overhead condensers and hopefully that come with mount clips. This is for post rock/indie/experimental style. Any reccomendations?
I’m a hobbyist so I’d like something that I wouldn’t need to tweak too hard in eq. But at the same time I’d like something good quality that I can grow with so I guess my budget is a little flexible. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
A: Shure do a kit with PG52 & PG56 mic’s – I think it’s reasonably priced and nice quality, I have some info on the PG56 here:
http://www.cassette2cd.co.uk/studio/focus/shure_pg56.htm
Try googling for it… I don’t think you can go wrong with Shure, a reputation built on good quality and good value for money IMHO.
There’s no condensers with this kit, but you surely won’t get any decent ones within the $200 budget…??
If this is for ‘live’ work, then go without the condensers, but for recordings, I would be tempted to concentrate on finding good condensers first and then adding the drum-kit mic’s later…
I find Audio-Technica very good for good-value-for-money condensers, but I don’t have much experience with using different condensers with drums, I have only tried the AT ones and have no complaints….
