Helo everyone,
I work for a non-profit organization that is in the process of starting
up a low power AM radio station. We need to buy four mics for on-air
hosts/DJ's. One mic will be the primary go to mic. The other 3 for
guests and discussion shows. Our budget is $475 or under for all 4.
(Yikes! - I know). That pretty much takes the RE20 and SM7 out of the
equation. My current thought is: Studio Projects C1 (has high pass)
as primary. 2 MXL V67G's as secondary and then either a MXL V57m or
used SM57/SM58 with the left over $. Am I shooting myself in the foot
getting large diaphragm condensers without lo cut (MXL V67). Maybe
careful positioning of a pop filter will keep people from eating the
mics and producing the proximity effect? There will be no processing
on the mics other than compression/limiting on the whole mix before
broadcast. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan Fox
