Hi guys
I just ordered the Marantz PMD 661 Supermod from Doug Oade and I am trying to figure out what mic's to couple it with. I will be recording some weird samples for my new album, so anything goes – from crazy foley and fx to street sounds, spoken work and live music recordings. Therefore I need a flexible mic – preferably stereo set. And very important – my budget can stretch only up to 850$.
I was thinking about Oktava's mk 012 moded by Mike Joly and Busman BSC1 stuff – which of those would fit better my needs? Maybe there are some other options that could fit the bill better? It would be a bonus if I could also use those to expand my studio possibilities.
I would greatly appreciate any advice as I am new to field recording and it seems to be a totally different animal then studio fun ;-)
Cheers
Marty
