BigAL24661 Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 I am a college student majoring in voice performance. I need a pretty decent microphone to record my lessons and some performances as well (opera, choral, orchestral, etc.) I'm planning on getting a Hi-MD NH900, but am not sure which mic to get. Any suggestions would be really appreciated! Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted September 17, 2004 Report Share Posted September 17, 2004 If you're recording music in a good-sounding room without a lot of distracting noise--like a classical performance--you should get omnidirectional or binaural mics that basically pick up what your ears do. You don't need directional mics (cardioids), which are more expensive. Make sure you get mics with the full frequency range of your recorder and your ears, 20-20,000 Hz. That rules out of a lot of Sony mics. Get a pair of stereo mics, not a mono mic, and you'll get a fuller sound if you can get mics that you can separate about the width of your ears rather than a one-point stereo mic (or a T mic). You need to decide whether you want small mics for stealth or convenience or larger ones for fidelity, though even the itty-bitty ones are quite good. Look at www.soundprofessionals.com, www.microphonemadness.com and www.reactivesounds.com and see what your budget can afford. Even the basic binaurals will sound good.
