Dear friends,
I would like to buy a matched pair of microphones to make some home
recordings with the following instruments: theorbo, archlute,
Baroque
lute, Renaissance lute, vihuela and Baroque guitar. The mikes would
work with a Focusrite Scarlett 2i2. For the price I would like
to pay I
have been told that the best options could be a pair of Rode NT5 or
Oktava MK-012. I have listen to some guitar sound samples and I
find
the Rode more brilliant and dynamic, but it cuts a bit the low
range
frequencies. The Oktava gives a more natural and woody sound, but I
find it a bit dark with a strong presence of mid-range frequencies.
Does anyone have recording experience with these specific
models? Other
suggestions are also welcome. Maybe there is a model wich is
particularly good at recording early music plucked strings
instruments.
Thanks in advance.
Best wishes,
Rafael Munoz
