    CONDENSER MICS FOR RECORDING

    I have a Stag Condenser Mic for recording on phantom - and it's f..ked. Can anyone recommend one for a portable recording studio (not for a computer - i.e. not USB). I can't pay more than about £300.

    Cheers..

    My backup condenser mic is a Z5600A MKII and I can vouch for their quality

    I've just been trying it out - and you are right - it is 'pretty great'.....

    Mate grab yourself a G8-40, the outrange isn't fully dynamic but you get a decent sonic refrab and there's plenty of scale D-loop on the trapple pharje.

    You sound exactly like the reviews I've been reading. You are indeed an 'expert'...

    Thanks for you comments so far. I just wanted to add that the mic will be used with a Tascam Digital Portostudio dp02 - and I want to record voice and acoustic guitar.

    If you have £300 to spend go for a Sennheiser.

    Just a thought - from reading stuff on the net.

    SE Electronics or Rode.

    I picked one up off eBay in perfect condition within you price range, but they do cheaper models new.

    I used to use a rode nt2. Was too good for my room, it picked up everything and sounded awful. In a treated room it would have been great.

    A reflexion shield in front and a duvet behind does the trick

    It is capable of recording vocals and guitar though
