Personally if someone didnt like your mic list, I'd tell them to go screw

Well, that's pretty much what's been happening to date! lol

I have made cool records with only a handful of 57's and an a pair of AT
4033. But thats just me.

Ditto... heck, my original recording setup was 4 SM57's and 2 SM58's...
some really good recordings too! lol

I think the 414XLS may be the most uselful mic in the bunch you mentioned. I
have a few and I'd love a few more.

Thanks for the suggestion, Mark. I couldn't tell you WHICH 414 I used
back in the day, but they always seemed to have a fairly harsh top end
to me. I have that in spades right now! lol

I'm looking forward to hearing what other people suggest... and their
reasons for the suggestions. I think it'll be illuminating.
