| Yong Aptekar 28.12.2011 | I just picked up a blue snowball mic. So sweet. Sounds good, and has 3 settings for recording what is in front of it, and if you want to do a round table discussion. I'm working on a podcast right now, that why I picked it up. $84 cdn for it. I'm making a pop filter toevening out of a pair of stockings, and a bathroom towel holder. Will post pics when its done. |
| Lisa Lochotzki 28.12.2011 | Those knock off mic may sounds similar, problem is they don't last. They aging pretty faster than higher end MIC. For home studio they might be a smart choice though. |
| Chandra Lean 28.12.2011 | honestly, i just went to my local dj & sound store, and saw these mics called NASH. (knock off shures) and i did a blind test. and i couldnt tell a difference. so that is an option. look at the EV's on Musicians friend they're like $25, or the were. and they are sweet ass mics. |
| Sulema Eshel 28.12.2011 | You may have trouble finding a C606... they are available, but getting hard to find. The SV100 replaced the C606, it looks IDENTICAL - no difference (of course, insides may be different, but as the SV100 is more expensive than the C606, they should be at least as good, if not better). Picture from Amazon - UK: I believe it's exactly the same mic, but Shure have rebadged it, so that they can charge a little more (the C606 was cheaper than this!). [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Shure-SV100-W-Multi-Purpose-Microphone-XLR-1/dp/B004AE3W8E/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1325100023&sr=8-1"]Amazon.com: Shure SV100-W Multi-Purpose Microphone with XLR-1/4" Cable: Musical Instruments@@AMEPARAM@@http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/31WnvXxhMUL.@@AMEPARAM@@31WnvXxhMUL[/ame] For about $30 (from above link), you really can't go wrong. Even if you end up spending up more on a top-of-the-line mic later on, this one will still serve you well. It sounds so transparent, it will keep you going for a few years or until you've made your first million. Final note: I read on one review that they only supply an UNBALANCED mic cable. If this is the case, you really would want to budget for a balanced cable (not much - $10 maybe)... those mic signals are so small (electronically), ANY interference would seriously degrade the quality. This is true of any condenser/dynamic mic. |
| Neva Sparacino 28.12.2011 | I look out all the stores in the malls i went Not even 1 shure mic not even the worst shure mic :C I need a pair of headphones too and i get a KRK KNS 8400 They sound pretty good But I can't get my mic im out of bugget I believe i might get a Shure I don't know wich one but until i get back to work in mexico Im going to find out more about that Shure C606 you said escapempc Any other testimony of the Shure C606? You sound pretty Shure about it jajajja I can always purchase them online right jajjaja |

| Neva Sparacino 26.12.2011 | Ok thank you so much real helpfull information People like you make me come to this community everyday and read everything jajajajaj |
| Lisa Lochotzki 26.12.2011 | I prefer the e835 to any SM58 in PA and live application anytime. Sounds warmer and more natural, also less prone to feedback. an anti-pop filter is not a bad thing but not always mandatory. Their pricing range goes from few bucks, to hundreds. Those mic stand vouched one are ideal. There's some things you can do 0n the DIY side too. |
| Neva Sparacino 26.12.2011 | I che out and the Sennheiser e835 its cheaper than the shure Dont get me wrong i dont want to go for the cheaper option i want a good mic that can make his work for a while But I dont need a super mic i just want to record some voices in some hip hop beats I'm working on and that stuff the Sennheiser e835 its a good choice then? I need to buy an antipop too right? I'm little new to this too there are classes of antipop? or there all the same? |
| Lisa Lochotzki 26.12.2011 | How cheap is cheap? Shure SM58 is still a classic and a fair one, while a Beta 58 is a better choice. For almost the same price you have better results with Sennheiser e835 or e845. |
