Picking mics

Petroglyph · 2014-02-07 15:12:22

So, I need a vocal mic and one for the acoustic guitar. I'll probably go with the Rode NT1 for the vocals, but can't decide on the other one. Any suggestions? What do you use for acoustic recording? Thanks!

been using DPA 4099 on my guitar - also a Sennheiser MKH 40 - both sound really good. Have Rodes and MXLs (mainly as backups) - not that fond of those two - very thin sounding

Either a single or a pair (depending on the effect you're going for) of Oktava MK012's always do the job nicely for me!
