Hi all! I've heard all about the C1 sounding like a U87 (i have no idea what that sounds like, but it sounds like it sounds good ) But I've also read good reviews about the AT4040 and i think it looks better and more 'trustable' Opinions please! ANY opinons welcome Im going to use it with a saffire for recording my voice (male vocals)

Start with an allrounder if it's your first mic as I believe. If you plan to gig, go sm57, it's not original but it can't be destroyed by human means You'll can go for something else later. The others named here should be great too. If there's a shop around where you are where you can try mic (there must be shops like that in Melbourne , I strongly advise you to try a few in the US$150-250 range. Your fellows aussies from Rode have nice stuff working great, it should be available easily. Another point, if you can, try the guitar with too, so you can have both! Do not invest for a higher price tag as it's not worth paying $$$ for a mic and not plug it into a decent pre/audio chain. What's the pre you use now?
