hello all. i am looking for a great all around large diaphragm condenser microphone for around 300.
trying to decide between the blue bluebird, Oktava mk319, or the audio technica 4040.
i have used the 4040 before, as well as the mk319 on several occasions. i own a 3035, a pro37r, 4041 as well, so im very familiar with audio technica. i found the 4040 to be a decent pick, but have only used them on overheads and vocals. i have used the mk319 on vocals and electric guitar. i have never used the blue before.
i like the fact that the blue comes with a shockmount and a pop filter, as well as the fact that the blue looks good.
i liked the 4040, but cannot stand the at shockmount. i think it's the worst design ever....
the mk319 is great for vocals, both female and male i have found, but i havent used it enough to determine whether i like it for anything else.
so, does anyone have any experience with the blue or greater experience with the other above mentioned microphones or perhaps something totally different i have not listed?
i would rather go japanese, austrian, or russian before i go chinese... just a thought...
