Members newholland Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 but just got hold of three CAD c195s. fitty bux... sounds WAY better to my ears than most ball mics. loverly agile sounding vocal mics that're sensitive as all getout-- SUPER hot output (in fact.. i gotta pad 'em).. but they don't have that massive midbass bump that makes 'em murk up, and they're clear on top. they're basically flat from around 100hz up to 5k where there's little bumps-- but nothing NEARLY as bad as a 58-- and they're easy to eq, and you can back off them a bit and still get clarity. nothing but happitude from the people i've put on them!

Members NixerX Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 Wonder how they would work for under snare applications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Stevetemp Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 I'm not sure what model my cheap CAD is...I'll find it.....but it's much smoother than a 58/7, lil more bottom, no mid spike, not quite as hot. I love it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nightflameauto Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 Links or it's Behringer mics into a v-amp. I currently use a cheap MXL mic for vocals. I have to keep it pretty far away from me and angled a bit to avoid highend spikes, but since I only record vocs about twice a year it works. Maybe I'd record more vocs if it wasn't such a fussy bitch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Stevetemp Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 Here's my cheap CAD CTM-55LShttp://www.cadaudio.com/astatic/ctm-55b_ctm-55bls.php29.99 SDOTD! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members newholland Posted March 14, 2012 Author Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 esta one of theses and not a behringer... and j-- i have a sneaking suspicion it'd be great under a snare-- but it's kinda big for it. it's basically the same deal as an 86/87-- and apparently CADs version. you could make it work, without question.. WAAY tougher feeling than something like a lil pencil mic too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members decode6 Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 I read that as "how many of you use cats as vocals mics?" *raises hand* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members nightflameauto Posted March 14, 2012 Members Share Posted March 14, 2012 I read that as "how many of you use cats as vocals mics?"*raises hand* {censored}, I got a cat that likes to sing with me when I'm trying to record. Mother{censored}er is loud too. If I could figure out how to tap that as a microphone I'd be in serious business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
