Hey all,
I recently purchased a Rode NTK and am running it through a Grace 101 mic pre into a D1600 recorder. Nothing else in the chain at all.
The problem is that for some reason, the vocals are sounding very brittle.
I'm just wondering if you all have any tips or techniques to try to take some or all of the brittleness out of the vocals.
I am probably considered a Tenor. I have the mic positioned straight up and down and I am facing directly into the capsule or directly facing the Rode "dot". I have a pop filter about 5 inches away and am standing and additional 5 or 6 inches behind that.
I do tend to sing rather loud but certainly not screaming. Could I be pushing the max spl's of that mic and that is where the brittleness is coming from??
Any other ideas or suggestions are certainly appreciated.
Thanks a bunch and God Bless.
