Amazing vocal mic
Great on vocals, has a really clear sibilant sound. Other mics I've tried before this, like the SM57 and AKG 214 sound a little bit dull to me, and I always felt a bit unsatisfied with the sound quality. This one leaves me feeling more unsatisfied with my own performance, because the microphone is great. It really shines on layering vocals. On your first take it might only sound 5% better than any other mic, but once you double your vocals, it sounds really professional and great.
For the sibilant sound I'm talking about, check out Christian Henson Music of Spitfire audio on youtube, he uses this microphone all the time in his videos, and you'll get a really good feel for it right away through his videos.
this is my next deal -
for my studio - it will be the next one - in UTERO - no question - !
Great Mic
Used in conjuction with four other microphones to record an Orange OR120 for my band's debut album
