Shure C606 vs Peavey Mic Bundle

I bought a Peavey Microphone and stand bundle package and it was quite handy because it has a carry bag and the mic stand is a well-built and good quality stand.  The microphone itself is not bad or as good as Shure but very decent.  It’s got a more bassy tone which is good for my voice as well as if I’m using a smaller PA system especially my Roland CubeStreet which is a guitar/PA amp so the treble is a bit prominent because technically it’s a guitar amp so to balance my voice I use the Peavey mic.

With regards to Shure C606, apart from being cheapest among the Shure microphones, it has the distinct quality of a Shure microphone.  The treble and bass are well balanced that you don’t need to fiddle with the EQ just plug in the microphone and that’s it.  This is the microphone I’m using with my recording as well as when I’m doing my podcast.  It’s been 2 years now and I have no problems whatsoever with the mic.  I have gigged with this mic and it never fails.  Truly, a reliable one from rehearsals to recording to live performances.

My first recording experience

I went to Norwich, a couple days back with my band, Crossedwind, to record our original compositions.  We've been exchanging on the net about ideas and backing tracks on our songs.  We made use of our celphones, recording our raw materials... pretty rough record but we managed  Then, I keep doing the backing tracks so that my bandmates can rehearse the song whilst Im away because I live here in Southampton.  To cut the story short, we almost managed to practise and finalised our songs virtually. We have four songs to record, so I arrived in Norwich last May 22 at around 6 pm, went straight to Earth Studio to rehearse.  It was like an overnight practise and then due for recording the following day.  We struggled a little bit, because backing tracks was far from doing the real thing with my bandmates.  There were changes made from intro, on how the adlib would sound, up to how we'll do the ending of the songs and so forth.  Even after our rehe...

EnergyXT comes with a flashdrive

EnegyXT comes with a portable drive or what we call flash drive.   In there are necessary files to run EnergyXT to any computer from a desktop or a laptop or a netbook as long as you got access to USB. The files that we need to copy are: clips presets projects samples temp\ energyXT2.exe energyXT.ini lame.exe libaam.dll xt.lck     energyXT2 VST.dll      energyXT.ini And paste these files in the program files with your folder EnergyXT then create a desktop shortcut or copy the shortcut onto your desktop.   The more you update your EnergyXT the more files will be included like rexloader, etc. You can now hop from one computer to another always make sure to keep your flashdrive safe and secure. This is what Im doing now, from Dell Inspiron to Sony Vaio to my wife's HP mini.  Really portable and handy.
