  • i have a reasonably low voice and was wondering if this would be a good mic for me? or if i should stick to my samson dynamic mic instead?

  • @lonewolf975 ribbons tend to have a big proximity effect and are also quite dark sounding, so this wouldn't be very suited to a deep voice. Your best bet would be a large diaphragm condenser. The Audio Technica At2020 that I use is a pretty decent budget condenser, it's around £80 I believe.

  • @marcreevesmusic thank you very much!

  • @lonewolf975 no worries! :)

  • what mic are you using for the video mate, great information btw :) ?

  • @Edonatar Thanks! Glad you found it useful :) The mic I'm using in the video is an Audio Technica AT2020 - a great budget large diaphragm condenser!

  • Can I please Have that microphone? :D

  • @ShivMishraMusic no mic stands generally are a separate purchase with most microphones unfortunately. You can get basic stands for around £15 though, which if you're just recording at home will do you fine.

  • @BigRodasMusicStudio haha no, why??

  • is Tobey Maguire ur brother?
