Which cardiod mics would you say is the best buy if I want them to meet these criterias;
1. I want to use the mics to an edirol R-09
2. I want to tape mainly alternative rock bands in indoor arenas and big clubs.
3. I want the mics to be fairly stealth / small
4. I prefer a clear and welldefined sound to a more bassy sound (if there has to be a trade off)
5. I want the mics in the price-range of about 300 dollars.
The mics I have in mind so far are SP CMC-8, Church audios cardiods, MM HLSC-1. Which one of these 3 is the best? Are there more mics to concider given the pricerange?
Thanx!
