[QUOTE="brian maddox, post: 96948, member: 158"] Re: Need help on Vocal Mic Selection Female Soul Singer Lead Vocalist I don't think Steve was saying this at all. I"ve got a friend who uses a KMS105 with his 500 dollar coffee house rig, and you can certainly tell the difference between that mic and a 58. I think what he was pointing out is that from a relative quality and expense standpoint, the 105 is out of line with the OPs rig. Demanding a lead vocal mic that costs 10 percent as much as the rest of rig combined is just nonsense, and frankly screams noob. Honestly, i think demanding any specific microphone is pretty much an amateur diva move. If you've got to have something specific, bring it. You wouldn't bat an eye spending a grand on a guitar, so spend the money on the mic you want. otherwise, you take whatever the provider has. Or you deal with the Markup necessary for the provider to sub rent what you require. [/QUOTE]
