eagleyes 5 January 25, 2013 Share January 25, 2013 I was wondering of anyone(anypony) has had any experience recording music. I am specifically asking for suggestions for what microphone I should start with for recording. I play violin, ukulele and other mid to high ranged instruments.

Freewave 1,145 January 26, 2013 Share January 26, 2013 I have a really big suggestion and that is when it comes to music making advice and techniques i would recommend giving my little remix a shot. It's for the brony music community and it's a music making forum first and pony site second. They really know their stuff. Looking at their archives here are few on-topic threads. http://mylittleremix.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4673&hilit=microphone http://mylittleremix.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4489&hilit=microphone http://mylittleremix.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=297&hilit=microphone http://mylittleremix.com/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=4744&hilit=microphones Should be a lot of options in those threads and likely a few other threads too for other musical questions you may have. I have made brony music since 2011. I like all kinds of music and genres. I'm sure you'll like some of it.. Here's My YouTube..I have several albums on Bandcamp and Pony.FM. Check out the 20+ Musician project Maressey which I am running. Check out the Brony Music Directory and FimMusic. A portal to all things Brony + Music.

SMIL3PON3 0 January 26, 2013 Share January 26, 2013 Anything audio technica is pretty good, but I strongly advise you stay away from lavalier microphones! If you were to buy a mic make sure it is a USB mic!!! They don't sound quite as good as other mics but they save you a lot of trouble in the long run Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Fader 24 January 27, 2013 Share January 27, 2013 As a techie I was rather hoping I could help here but to be perfectly honest, I'm not entirely sure what type you'd use here. I wouldn't think a dynamic microphone would be suitable in this situation, but either a condenser of ribbon. Be aware ribbon microphones are not cheap. If you're not going professional then maybe consider a condenser microphone. These microphones will probably come with an XLR connector so if you don't have the right connections, it may be a problem. You can buy USB condenser microphones that feature an on-board sound card. What capture/edit software are you using? "Exit signs - they're on the way out aren't they?" "Velcro. What a rip-off!"
