| Good Mic Amps?
So, looking into buying a microphone and amp. I know Shure sm85 is
what I want for mic, but I have no idea what I'm looking for with
amps. Any advice? List is fav -core vocalists. | | 1 | Jeff Moreira (Poison the Well)
Such insanely powerful harsh vocals, and while early cleans were crappy by
the end they were pretty damn solid. Plus, lyrically the guy is amazing. | | 2 | Jacob Bannon (Converge)
You know why. | | 3 | Frank Turner (Million Dead)
Certainly a distinctive voice, but admittedly his vocals aren't quite brilliant.
His lyrics on the other hand... | | 4 | Greg Puciato (TDEP)
His range is pretty damn impressive, and all his vocals are strong.
Admittedly doesn't put much emotion into them though. | | 5 | David Marion/Adam Fisher (Fear Before)
Eclectic but entirely engaging. Alliteration bitches. | | 6 | Frank Carter (Gallows)
Really intense vocals whilst rarely becoming typically 'harsh' | | 7 | Daryl Palumbo (Glassjaw)
I wonder... | | 8 | Jay Forrest (Hopesfall)
Satellite Years era | | 9 | Nathan Winneke (HORSE the band)
Another really eclectic but strong vocalist | | 10 | J.R. Hayes (Pig Destroyer)
Awesome lyrics, awesomely intense vocals | | 11 | Derek (Defeater)
Passion, strength and lyrically ability. ++ | |

07.24.10 | Oh, forgot to add. As cheap as possible. | BrahTheSunGod
07.24.10 | Needs more Jesse Leach! The guy's amazing. Same for Brock Lindow.
Also, I'd highly recommend a Line 6 amp of any sort.
Honestly though, if you're looking for an easy way to record guitars at excellent quality, try the Line 6 POD xT live. It's an all-digital USB in (no mic or amp necessary), and while not traditional, I've used it as my primary means of recording guitar for two years now, and I would honestly not do it another way. Not to mention it's a great effects pedal! | Skimaskcheck
07.24.10 | You are talking vocals right? If so, the Marshall AS50D is primarily an acoustic amp but it's got an XLR input for a mic so you can play guitar and use vocals simultaneously, i've used it loads times and it works nicely.
If your talking about mic-ing up a guitar amp you won't be wanting an SM58, maybe a Rode M3. | Captain North
07.24.10 | Yeah vocals, thus the list of vocalists. I'm thinking atm, because I'm on a hideously shoe string budget, I'll just wham it through a mixer into the bass amp, or maybe get a Wedge or something, then work my way up to a proper amp. | Skimaskcheck
07.24.10 | What kind of thing are you gonna be using it for anyway?
Home practice, actual shows, recording? | Captain North
07.24.10 | Practice for now. By the time we're ready for shows I should have the money for something decent. | Mordecai.
07.24.10 | what u want is a power amp and a PA (aka speaker). vocalists don't use "amps". |
