For voice over and podcast, shall i get the pg42-lc or to get the new model pga-27-lc? please advise.

I do character voiceover for video games, trailers, cartoons, ads and radio commercials with a 27. It's one of my go-to pieces of equipment. The 42 is very, VERY nice, too, but I've gotten so used to the 27 that I'd pick it 9 times out of 10.

Looking for a mic to record a full orchestra. Thoughts on this mic?

Yes this kind of mic is the best. I bought one and I loved it!

How does it connect to computer

You will need an audio interface that connects to the computer that has a microphone input that can also provide phantom power for this microphone to work since it is a condenser microphone.

Does this compare to the discontinued ksm27?

Sorry, but I'm not familiar w/the ksm27. But if that's a good mic, you'll like this also, because it's very good for the money.
