Depends on the situation. I’m quite fond of the M149 though…C12, U47…C800G…U87, U67, 251, SM7b, Re20, and some other less recognizable things…I don’t think it’s reasonable to say there is “one go to mic for vocals”…9/10 times the first thing I put up is the M149 though =)

If someone thinks their work is worth $5…then they get bypassed…why would I hire someone who sells themselves so short? If they aren’t any good, then it’s a waste of $5 and time…why not just set your rates at what you think you are worth? If you fall into the trap of trying to compete, then you are going to make your life miserable, taking on people who only think you are worth $5…they will treat you like garbage…if you have real talent, charge what your time is worth, and be firm about your retention of your IP…why cave into the misery that someone selling themselves short creates?
