Ima rapper, I have a Sterling St55 mic, a whisperoom that i bought, a mbox, some 50 dollar mic cables that start with a M, i dont wanna sound dumb and guess but maybe Mon-a something....and like even before the mix my vocals just dont sound clear as some of the time my freinds will record on my mic, or from my older cheaper mic i usd to have akg perception 120. What else could it be......should i rap very loud and have a VERY soft input, vice versa or depends...distance from mic matter?? too close makes sound quality worse?? I know if the input is too loud it has clipping, but i mean even if it dont clip is it better to rap louder and do a very soft input....vocals seem i guess not crisp clear kinda scratchy....
