  2. [quote]The mic does not have to be high quality, just enough for home recording to see what's what![/quote]

    Then, get a used SM57 (you will see them more than any other mic ever I would suspect) and one of these:

    Its crap in the grand scheme of thing but will give you a solid idea of where the differences are between the dynamic (57) and condenser mics. I would also advise that time invested in faffing with mic position will be a better investment than rolling lots of money into better mics early on. You will learn more from listening to where the mics are than what they are. The above will also give you a couple different sounds.

    Good luck, its a load of fun.

  3. [quote name='TPJ' post='815826' date='Apr 23 2010, 09:43 AM']I thought the super-cardioid where best as they don't suffer from bleed as badly and pick up the source more cleanly.[/quote]

    Whilst you may be right from a purely textbook side of things, you really need to try the 4060.

    Its is *tiny*, sounds lovely and to me, spill is never an issue. Unless, of course, it is beside a drum kit but then I don't know any mic that will reject that regardless of polar pattern.

  4. DPA 4060 well worth a try.

    Can clip it on to the strings under the bridge and, because it is OMNI, it does not suffer from proximity that a cardiod mic would.
