Thaks for all the great info and ideas! From prices here in Australia
the MXL's seem like a good idea. The Octava's get great reviews but
seem hard to find and pretty expensive here. The review of the 603
http://www.mojopie.com/603.html is glowing and they are REALLY cheap!
;) I'm not sure to get 2 603's for stereo recording ($150!) or the
MXL2001 and 603 for $150 too. 2 small diaphragm or one of each? Guess
i also have to ask mic pre or mixer? I don't need a mixer for anything
else... so i'm thinking seperate mic pre. Is solid state or tube
better at the cheap end? A few companies seem to have $100 tube mic
pre's.
