 condenser microphone
Condenser microphones span the range from inexpensive karaoke mics to high-fidelity recording mics. They generally produce a high-quality audio signal and are now the popular choice in laboratory and studio recording applications. They require a power source, provided either from microphone inputs as phantom power or from a small battery.




















dynamic microphone

Dynamic microphone is for the drum kit. The reason i chose a dynamic mic for the drum kit is because it has a better flow for instruments and because you can direct it straight towards the cone of the amp, it only picks up the instrument not background sound which gives a much clearer sound.



























acoustic drum kit

acoustic drum kit because I would rather use an acoustic drum kit as a pose to electric because I prefer the sound.
















mic stand

a mic stand is used to hold the microphone, if you where a guitarist and singer you would need a mic stand.

















an acoustic guitar is completely different from a electric,
an acoustic guitar would suit a more softer singer (slow)
it has to be able to suit a certain track.
