I am trying to find the right mic, but according to some materials, there is no such thing, so, this question has probably been asked 100+, but I still would like a custom answer for my situation.
My trials, I am recording to an 8-track(24 bit) recorder currently with a MXL 2003 large condensor mic. Ive used a Shure SM58 as well as an AKG s1000. The MXL seems to give the best results, but yet it seems like we could still get a better sound. I have invested in some "decent" studio monitors to help focus on a more accurate sound, but yet I am still thinking it could sound better.
Specs. I am recording in a 11'X10' room with a 8 1/2' celling. We have the MXL 2003 in a corner, well some what. The walls are plastered, which is expected but sucks. I live in a rental, so I cant really do too much constrution with the room. The MXL is powered by a Beringer 4 channel mixer with phantom power. In which the sound goes directly to the recorder.
The deal is we are trying to get a more warmer vocal sound. The problem is when we get the mic to a point where it dont distort, you can still hear a lot of reverberation. So we turn the mic volume down and we loose the feel of the emotion. Any suggestions on mics in a condision simular to mine. ANY feedback would be appreicated, thanx for reading, peace. pm
