hey, ages ago i quered the folks at partyvibe for a soundscard and mic, i gave into the Maudio and its wicked realllllyyyy useful, anyway now im on to the microphone, im looking for a cardiod condenser mic, for about 30-50 quid, dont mind buying from ebay, i just want to use it for voice and Acoustic, and i want a crisp bright clear sounds preferabley with a reasonable low frequency boost
any ideas

September 5, 2007 at 8:54 pm #1119405I’d have a look on ebay, a couple of weeks ago someone was sellin a job lot of really high quality condensers but advertised them badly and they all went for about 50 quid (they were old german mics similar to schoeps CMCs and must hav been worth over 300 each). SE electronics do a entry level condenser called the 2200A which is apparently really good tho iv not heard one myself. Theres often a few on ebay going for cheap. Red5Audio also do decent budget condensers. Behringer stuff is generally good for the price (cos they rip off well known designs and its all made by slaves!).

September 8, 2007 at 12:51 pm #1119402Not sure if you are best looking for a condenser mic – you may be better off with a “standard” mic – condensers have very good high frequency pick up (which is why engineers often use them as overheads on drum kits), but getting a good condenser will cost you £££’s.
What you are doing with it, I would say you’d probably be better off with something like a Shure SM58, or a Sennheiser E845 (both of which have a very good frequency response across the board, and shouldn’t cost much more than about £50 new)…
