I was wandering around the 'net and found this place I think you will like!
If you've been here before, you might like to visit again anyway.

Enjoy!

Thanks for posting this.
I haven't been to this site for sometime. I downloaded the "All Microphone" file at the end of the page and listened to it intently. There are many microphones that are not used for VO work and many that are.
I was interested in hearing the RCA 44. What a sweet sounding ribbon. I have to get new ribbon for mine and put it to use.
It's worth taken the time to give this mp3 a listen _________________ Esse quam videri "To be rather than to seem"

Thank Todd
I have seen his work, not sure I want a refurb cost being a consideration.
Just replacing the ribbon with RCA stock would suit me. _________________ Esse quam videri "To be rather than to seem"

Nice collection Ed!
I've got a ways to go...
Shure KSM32 primary VO, but works great on horns, acoustics, overhead...
Shure SM57 (2)
Sennheiser e602 (Bass/Kick)
Sennheiser e604 (3) (drums/horns)
Oktava mc12(2) small condensers
I'd like to get some AKGs and Sennheiser 421s, a Neumann or two would be cool too.
Anyhow I guess pictures and samples will have to do for now! 8^)

David
Nice collection yourself. Mine came about because I do some multi-track recording and have built it over the years.
I have a goal to record the Pipe Organs in an around Winston-Salem. We have some outstanding instruments.
I want to use OCT Surround, where 5 matched microphone are mounted in the sweet spot.
If I can swing it I would like to use 5 matched Peluso P-28 vacuum tube small pencil mic.

That has my attention for sure. A very reasonable price for sure.
