FYI,

Lot's of folks on other boards, dedicated to audio gear,
and methods, have been very satisfied with an updated
version of an MXL mic, the 2003a, and an identical mic
with a different "skin", the Cr24.

Google for:

mxl 2003a

OR:

mxl cr24

and you'll get lot's of hits.

These are large diameter condenser mics (LDC), so they
are intended for use in recording, not live performance.

For some reason they only seem to be available in "kits",
incuding a small diameter condenser (SDC),
plus shockmounts, etc.

The small diameter condensers in the kit are versions
of the MXL 603, which is popular for recording
instruments, especially for drum overheads.

I have no association with any vendors, just mean to
share info with all the Folks.

Anyhow, thought y'all might like to know,
Emmit Sycamore
