Alright, I'm trying to get a decent set of mics together to mic a drum set so I can start recording other bands... However, I'm unsure what to get for overheads. I've heard Rode NT-5s are good, but they cost more than what I just paid for all the other mics I have for the set, combined
What I have right now:
4 Shure SM57s
1 Shure Beta52
1 Shure SM58
1 Shure Beta58
1 Sterling ST-79
1 MXL 990
1 MXL 991
All into a Presonus FirePod.
Are their any good overheads out there for <$250 for a pair (preferably less, if possible)?
I've heard the Octava mk012s are good, but it seems they're around the same price as the Rodes now... I've also heard Naiant mics are good, but it doesn't look like they sell the MSH1O anymore, which is the one I've seen is most recommended?
I can go used, I would actually prefer it, but I realize, many of these mics are hard to find used
