Any advice for recording male vox with SM57?
My space has a few hung blankets to kill obvious gross reflections. I use Scarlett 2i2 interface and Reaper DAW. I know all of that affects results but ignore that stuff for now. I want to improve my technique using the SM57.
At present I point the mic directly at the singer's mouth, put a pop filter as close as possible to the mic (literally millimeters away) and have the vocalist sing as close as possible to the pop filter without bashing it into the mic.
There's got to be a better way than having everything jammed right up to the mic and forcing the singer to stay restrained within such tight proximity to the mic.
Thanks for any suggestions.
