+1 for Dropbox. I do the same. I also use it to share tracks with friends on various projects, but wouldn't even try to do a live stream.

Don't remember what they were (maybe someone can recognize them in the video). They sounded good, but also had quite a bit of bleed (not nearly as bad as 58s though). Hard to tell, but my first guess would be Sennheiser e8xx series. The best mics I've used live for bleed and feedback rejection are ...

Per Carl's suggestion ^, if you can create a track that gets some drum cancellation, even if it sounds like crap, you could use that to key the real vocal track.

My experience has been that some of the mods like Oktavamod are beneficial. I have a set of MXL 603s that Mike Joly modded that are fantastic! I don't have a KM184 to directly compare to, but for a total of about $300each, I have a pair of SDCs that are better then anything else I have. I love them ...

Those videos are pretty dramatic, but it looks similar to a number of membrane type absorption materials that are on the market. To do a room they are usually fairly expensive. From a physics point of view, the energy is turned into heat by the membrane. What would be more interesting for me would b...
