Favorite Small Diaphram Condenser Mic for Live Use?

[Pablomago]

I like mixing an internal pickup with a SDC on acoustic guitar. Which ones do you like for that purpose?

I have and like the Octava Mk012. Inexpensive mic that doesn't sound inexpensive at all.

I’ve found the ksm137/141 has been very tolerant on live stages even when putting the miked instrument into the monitors.


The most important question is what is you budget?

Oktava Mk12 here. Just used it last night to record some congas for a fun summer drinking song to be released next spring.

AKG 460/451
Josephson C-42
Neumann KM-184
A little less $? Shure SM-81

not an sdc = EV nd967. absolutely awesome. very feedback resistant. dead simple. great sound. nice vocal mic too.

cheap and very good sdc, since you asked = audio technica mb4000 (c?). I have three of them.
