No I think all the "real" Oktava's are Russian but there were some "fake" Chinese ones being sold sometime last year.
The MKs are made in Russia and I don't see the MCs being sold new anymore.
That's why I'm thinking the MKs are just the new version of the MCs..This is just a guess though????

OK so I'm going in and out of my board with RCAs and into an HD24 or an ADAT with 1/4" do they need to be 1/4" trs or just regular 1/4"?? and what's TS? is that a balanced mono 1/4"?? TRS= tip ring sleeve(balanced 1/4" stereo) TS= tip sleeve(balanced mono 1/4") is that right? Phono= TRS????or what's...

I was going to ask this very question after reading someones post below.
I've used the mc-012s before and I loved them.I was thinking of getting a pair of the mk-012s thinking they were just the newer model((??))

That's crazy talk???? 57s sound great on just about anything.(IMHO)
I have been wanting to try a sennheiser 609 though...Anyone have an opinion on these???

I just got an old M3500 and I signed up on the forum...about 5 minutes later I got the notice.....Crazy??????

If I had anything to do with this ..........sorry:)

Thanks all....This should get me going in the right direction

the mini one?
are you using mac or PC? it looks like it will work on both but it might be more compatable with mac???

OK so I'm setting up my 1st computer recording rig and I realize I need an external hard drive
M-Box 2 and a Dell Inspiron 6000 lap top

suggestions on hard drives???????
Thanks

Line 6 is hit and miss IMHO
the pod sucks-the pod xt live sucks but those big green and yellow delay and modulation pedals are some of the most kick ass pedals out there.
$200 for 2 ok mic pres that can give you some crazy flavor cant hurt you that badly
Try it out and let us know!!

OK ...I'll chime in with my 2cents

I just got a 602 and I love the shit out of it

I was using a 52 - D112 - or an audix - and the 602 is now my favorite(maybe because it's new???)

It just has a nice full tone(the 52 is my 2nd choice)

I agree with everything said...The patchbay will come after a few "choice" pieces in my rack.....I will need a bunch o' cables though. As far as rolling my own..........(drifts off for a sec.......~~) Is there a good place to buy quality cable "by the mile"???? and ends. Is it really worth the time?...

I'm looking for opinions on this rig.....All I've ever used is My Yamaha 01V and ADATS so I might be missing something important that someone here might kindly point out..... I just picked up a Tascam M-3500 32x8 board and I'm getting an Alesis HD24 I plan on recording bands as live as possible so I...

I'll give you 30 bucks and a can of soup for tha Ball

Thanks for the input so far!!
eBay
Guitar Center & Seetwater have some cool used stuff.

How about some others??????
Thanks again!

I'm putting together a rig and I want a 32 channel console at the heart of it. I'm not rich and I don't really make any money at this so I'm looking at stuff under $2000. I've seen a few Tascam M3500 32x8 boards that look nice and going cheap.Anyone have any experience with these boards? Then there'...
