I used to do some pretty decent recordings with a cheap PC mic and I did try a couple of other medium range mics too without much improvement. You've really got to go up a few notches to really hear the difference with mics. So much has to do with mic placement, levels, background noise, eq ... no matter how expensive the mic you're using. I'd hold off until you can get a really good one, myself.
Thanks Kirk!
Yeah, I really don't want to go with a cheap mic and end up regretting it later. I really would like to get PT because I feel I'm at a stage where certain parts of the ol' grey matter need unlocking to allow me to start moving again, because as you say I have reached that dreaded plateau stage, and I reckon that PT will be the key to open that up for me.

So I'm off now to order PT!
