Hi all,
I'm involved in setting up a new commercial studio in england, and I'm currently trying to come up with the equipment list for the investors..
at the moment i'm trying to decide/work out what mics to go for.. bearing in mind that i know very little about mics anyway!
the options that i have so far include..
4 sennheiser E604
2 Neumann U87
1 sennheiser 421-U4
1 akg C414b xls matched pair
1 royer R121
1 SE electronics Gemini
I'm not sure about a kick mic.. perhaps the E602?
this list is from a couple of lists that others have researched and I'm just trying to define what the best choices are.. I want to have the capability for quality recording of as many instruments/styles as possible.. and some voiceover work..
What do the knowledgable people think!
also, do you think there's any place/reason for sm57/58s in a studio? or would you recommend other options?
thank guys.
Luke
