What's in YOUR mic locker???

[dkelley]

um, likely missing stuff here, not looking at my locker, and I've sold plenty of them as I've changed my focus, and all of these are current but may change. Also, I didn't pay for all of them (in long term trades for other gear I own, I didn't steal them ;-)

Neumann tlm-103
akg c535eb (2)
akg 414uls (2)
peavey 520tl
heil classic rock'n'roll hall of fame commemorative dynamic
heil pr-20

sennheiser 421 (3)
radio shack pencil electret condensor
radio shack pzm (2)
audix om2 (2)
shure sm58(2)
apex 435 (3)

some of these are not sticking around (435s are gradually leaving, 421s are also gradually leaving, 414s unfortunately might go back in their trade for my other gear, the km184s are probably going to leave, various reasons...)

Well there ya have it my meager collection

Hmmm... I have: EV RE-xx (15s, 16s, 18s, 20s, 55s) EV PL-6's AKGs Sennheisers Neumanns As for Chinese mics: I only own a pair of MXL V67Gs. They are solid performers on a variety of vocals and believe it or not, they sound nice on OHs too...not like AKG C414's, but they do sound nice. I don't have any Shure SM-57/58s; their hyped mid-range is like chalkboard on MY ears so for guitar cabs and such, I'll usually use an EV RE-18 or a Sennheiser e-609 Silver...something like that.

First time I've made a complete list of all the mics I own, cool. I tend to always use the same small group of mics over and over. I think I'll start to experiment and mix it up a little more. I still want more mics!!

[ledmaiden]

My list is fairly modest:

Shure:

KSM 141 (and hopefully a second soon)

Groove Tubes:
GT-55

MXL:
601s

Nady:
RSM-4

And a few other cheapos that I have no idea how I ended up with.

I guess it's a pretty Shure-heavy set up. Any suggestions for some other stuff?

[trompetfreak]

Dynamic:
1 Shure SM58
1 Sennheiser MD403
1 Grundig GDM121 (yes, the early version of the Sennh MD21)

Hi Cave Hill Audio,
I own a GDM-121 too. Nice one in kick!
The internal rubber totally disintegrated, so I have to replace it. I'm thinking of filling it with foam... Have you had a similair problem? and how did you solve it?
