Tha Studio General Chat...

[CODEiNE BRYANT]

This thread is for anything that's not a physical song or video. I'm sure we're all getting tired of seeing pointless threads about recording equipment everyday, and other pointless threads. Discuss all of your equipment here, anything involving Tha Studio, and whatever you want. Most of y'all know how this works.

can i get some referrals for mics? like which do ya'll use, how do you like it, stuff like that.

i'm looking for a moderately priced mic, i'm willing to spend a little over $100 on one, don't want to tie myself down with an expensive mic when i may want another one or may just dislike the one i buy. any help would be appreciated, fellas.

Here's my set-up...

Mic - Samson CO1U (USB). As far as I know, you can get this mic for like $80 online brand new. I got mine for $99 at my local music store because I didn't wanna worry about shipping and whatnot. Bought it in March I believe.
Mic Stand - QuikLok A-300. Runs for around $30. Folds up nicely went you don't need it, and is pretty durable. Just picked this up last week. The mic I have and mentioned above comes with a desktop stand, but it got annoying after a bit.
Pop Filter - Nady MPF-6 6-Inch Clamp On. Goes for around $15. Good pop filter in my opinion.
Other - Foam Ball Windscreen. Picked this up at RadioShack like 2 years ago for like $5. I think it's kinda like a cheap pop filter replacement, but I use both my pop filter and this. I never really have to worry about small things picking up through my mic or my "S's" and etc picking up heavily.


So all in all, it looks like my set-up is in your price range. You could always pick up the mic stand, or other accessories at a different time as well if needed. My mic is really good. I just need to work on my mastering/mixing more. Another good thing about this mic is that it comes with Cakewalk's Sonar recording and editing software. I personally don't like it, but you might. I decided to just stick with Mixcraft.


Hope this helps.

where do you record? like in a bedroom or somethin?

Usually in the middle of my room ha. I wanna invest in one of those like 260 degree sound wall things though in the future.

speaking of microphones, can anyone tell me who makes those microphones which have a small wall around the actual microphone which makes it sound proof without actually modifying the room which u record in
