[QUOTE="Dick Rees, post: 14650, member: 16"] Re: Whats in your mic box and what your favorite? I assume you mean a ''band box'' for electric bands. I do almost everything but these bands and find that my kit is big enough to encompass them anyhow. I would suggest the 906 over the 609 for guitar cabs, though. My all-time favorite (dynamic)kick drum mic is an EV 868. But that's just me. That's what I like to hear and I can get a nice spectrum of response out of it via placement and gating. I do not own any Audix drum mics except for a D6 which sometimes sees use, but when Latin percussionists show up with their own Audix D series mics I have loved them. And after adding a ton of other mics to my kit (now numbering around 200 pieces) I must say that for go-to basic mics it is still hard to beat having a half dozen each of the venerable SM57's/58's. Beyond that I just pray for bands that have actual arrangements and aren't all playing everything all the time. No mics can sort that out...... [/QUOTE]
