    Any experience with Microtech Gefell mics? Particular favourites etc.

    I'm not asking in regards to any particular application, but more regarding an all around workhorse, and one which I wouldn't outgrow.

    Cheers.

    I'd love to hear their UMT 70 and MT71 mics.

    any i have heard were amazing - they are the origional NEUMANN mics
    using PVC capsule membranes - the new neumanns are owned by seinnheiser and do not use PVC far as i know.

    Used the M71 on acoustic and it sounded really good, kind of a cheap alternative to a Neumann TLM 193 or a TLM 105. It's hard to find a workhorse mic, mine for overdubs was a Neumann TLM 193 which became a U87 when funds were available. Buy the best you can afford. Remember the chain you plug it into will also heavily influence the sound also.

    Yeah, I have only heard really good things about them. Don't know about them being a cheap alternative to Neumann. Seem to be in quite a similar price range.

    Am heading to Germany in a few weeks, might try and find somewhere to take one for a spin.

    Sorry, Just remembered it was in a studio in Denmark in the mid 90's and the owner
    had bought a shed load of them in East Germany. They were the M70 and M71 and that's where i made the comparison, those mics were cool for acoustics but not as good as a U87 for Vocals.
