Shure Beta 58A dynamic microphone is what Scavneck told me to get a few weeks ago, is that still what I should get?

I know that Mr. Swanö has used/still uses AKG mics. And I know that my AKG headset is the best headset I have ever heard. I bet the mics are good, too!

if you want a mic for recording, get a condenser mic, not a dynamic

That's what I've been hearing, but what exactly is a condenser mic?

they're much more sensitive and will show more of your voice than a dynamic would. but you have to take alot of care with them because they break easy hence why they're really only for recording

here's what they look like if you didn't know...

Ahh I see. Condenser mic it is then I don't really need a handheld mic right now since I'm just recording some tunes with a friend and we don't have a drummer to jam with so good quality recording is more important righ not

 

[viewerfromnihil]

good choice. also, make sure that the room that you record in is very quite because condenser mics pick up almost every sound. oh and make sure that you get a poofy cover for it cuz it's very bad if spit gets inside of it

 

[Chamet]

Cheers for the tips, I'll keep them in mind

I'm probably going to buy an SM58 as a Christmas present,expecially 'cause my shitty mic is 3\4 broken.


In the last weeks of growling I noticed that I sound MUCH better if I put a -huh- 65-75% of power instead of the 85-90% I used to put.
This goes expecially for the very low growls and for the high growls.

Yes,tonight I fucking love numbers.

Here's "I Will Kill You" from a little practice session I did a few days ago.
Not my best,probably,but it's not that far.
Keep the volume low: expecially at the starting my broken mic will annoy you.

Ah,yes,the first growls are a bit "unsure" (when the volume is low I feel uncomfortable.)

i dont really like those growls. they seem to be coming frmo your throat and not from your diaphram

 

[StealerAG]

sad to hear that...Well,my throath doesn't hurt for sure,I can do 20 times the same song without hurting myself...

I'll try to use more my diaphragm,even though I think I'm using it enough

 

[Chamet]

I think your growls sound pretty cool, but I agree with swedishmetalrules, they seem to be coming from your throat.

 

[StealerAG]

mmmh,I'll work on that than

 

[Chamet]

I think you sound a bit like Johan Hegg at times pretty brutal.

 

[StealerAG]

Tomorrow I'll try Guardians Of Asgaard. It fits better my style.

Great song, looking forward to it.

 

[Scavneck]

He sounds like EmeticGore, except a lot less advanced.

 

[EmeticGore]

Coincidently using the same song I just did.

 

[StealerAG]

This morning my throath was pretty fucked up,but the result isn't that bad.
I'll post something better in the following days
Do you know how to warm up the throath without drinking alcohol or other stuff?

BTW,here it is
Guardians Of Asgaard
