Hello forum,
We are recording vocals and I had an old mic. Everything sounded fine, maybe a bit bassy on the vocal (heavy rock) and popping a lot so thought I would treat myself to a new vocal mic. New mic is a cardioid condenser mic. (I have since read posts suggesting this is probably not my best choice!)
Now suddenly the mic is such good quality it is picking up the room sounds. Wooden floor. Nothing on the walls or ceiling. Very live.
I have purchased some acoustic tiles and making a small vocal booth. Testing this weekend. I have read many posts on here. Lots of people love the live room sound, but once the vocals are compressed it really takes them out the mix.
Any tips or tricks very welcome.
