Attn: Jason S. , Question for ya!

I'm reading all about different field recorders, and in the process, shotgun microphones. What have you found to be the most successful mic in your vid/audio recording ??

Thanks!!

Nick Mason of pink floyd did some recording of the BRM formula one car and it's some of the best engine sounds ever recorded.

Might be a good starting point but I'm sure the mics are old school and expensive.

I've actually used a cheap zoom effects processor as a mic preamp and two SM57s.

Hey Joseph,
Sorry for the late reply, I'm using a Rode 2 shotgun mic and I think it's great, captures amazing sound. http://www.rode.com/microphones/ntg-2
