Need a mic, help. (Recording Mic)
Need a mic, help. (Recording Mic) Posted on: 01.10.2012 by Jeramy Akinola Hi, I've been producing Hip-Hop for quite a while, also a little EDM, but mostly Hip-Hop instrumentals, and now with a couple of friends who write, we've decided to start recording at my house, problem is I don't have a mic, and when I searched for one in guitar center I had no idea which one to choose. Please need help, anyone who knows about recording mics. Help appreciated, thank you. (A good price would be appreciated also) | |

| Beckie Spitler 12.10.2012 | I personally like the Audix OM 7 |
| Stanley Topoleski 02.10.2012 | for decent instrument and vocal recordings an sm58 with a cheap presonus preamp should do just fine... you can also look at some of the lower end mxl's if if you are on a serious budget |
| Shonda Soulier 02.10.2012 | FWIW - a couple MCs I know made mixtapes with the Blue Yeti and they sounded pretty damn good. If you're on a budget I'd recommend it. |

| Taren Wurstner 01.10.2012 | really can't beat the sm58. great mic and durable as a hell. |
| Dorie Scelzo 01.10.2012 | What gear
do you have? What kind of voice are you recording? What's your budget? How serious are you? If you're serious, an SM58 is a talkback mic or a hammer. If you're doing it for S&G, it's probably all you need. |
| Antonetta Wikel 01.10.2012 | You'll also want a decent Mic Pre-Amp. |
| Leeanna Ayla 01.10.2012 | Can't go wrong with a SM58 http://www.guitarcenter.com/Shure-SM...84-i1126419.gc |
