History: 50-year-old musician, Kevin Mattson, has been an entertainer for plenty long. I'm just here to help you whippersnappers get a grip on the golden age in which you live.
Excellent gear is cheap and opportunity is rampant. Talent is a license for hard work. Go for it.
Purchase: I bought two Behringer ECM 800 microphones on the advice of a famous recording engineer. They were about $50 each from any of the musical dot.coms
Pros: Incredibly versatile. This mic can help you calibrate your studio or mixing room's accuracy. But they can also serve as excellent general purpose live mics of choirs, orchestras, church concerts, school events, etc.
Cons: Nothing to complain about.
ECM 800 Quality: Comes in a nicely molded case, including mic stand adapters and wind-screen. Behringer Summary: There's a paradox about recording music: The larger the group you're recording, the smaller the mic's diphragm should be. Can't explain that here, but the Behringer ECM 800 is a good choice for capturing the music of choirs and orchestras.
