For house bands and bands playing small venues with the monitors nearby, you absolutely want a cardioid mic. Cardioid mics are BEST for cutting down on feedback and crowd noise bleeding into the mic. Super-cardioid mics cause more feedback.
Thank u sir. Can you recommend a budget super cardioid microphone for gigs? Better for falsetto pick up. Im a year user of Kevler Dm950 the prob is yong MID nya nka 3 o'clock xea para mapick vox ko sa lows
a 1:1 setup will almost always be recommended for good audio for a podcast. you may try 2 units of a large condenser mic that can do a figure-8 polar setting but it would also require a quiet room since these condensers are sensitive and would pickup every sound source in the room.
Is the room noisy, reverberant, isolated? if you have a non isolated room with windows and hear noise form the outside, you may want to treat that first. use a dynamic mic and podcaters should talk directly to the mic for good clear pickup and avoiding most noises around
