LD Systems D1011 or Samson c01

[tyohars]

I'm learning to home recording and buying stuff slowly. I'm building my own mini studio on my house. Now, I want to buy condenser mic and in my area, the two cheapest is LD Systems D1011 and Samson c01. I don't want to spent more for my learning. Any opinion about that 2? Which one is the best? For vocal recording.

I have the Samson C01 and it is a very good Mic for no much money.

Is it versatile enough to record vocals and instrument?

Yes it is very versatile, specially for vocals and acoustic guitar or as overheads.
I would recommend caution with any condenser mic on guitar or bass amps as they tend to be more sensitive, for those duties I would recommend a Shure SM57 and the condenser for ambience.
