Hi,
I would like to know if anybody actually uses the Shure SM58 (or beta58) in the studio environment for vocal recording. And is it only for loud (ie. rock) kind of vocals because of the sensitivity of the dynamic mikes?
At the moment, I use the Rode NT2 for vocals. It goes through my dbx 386 mic-pre and sometimes through my board (SOUNDTRACS TOPAZ 32) so that I can adjust the fader "on-the-fly" if need to.
My recording room is not totally soundproof, so usually I would schedule important sessions late in the night because my studio is located on the ground floor of a 2 storey-shop-house, and movement upstairs can sometimes be heard via vibrations (low-freq rumble) from the floor from the second storey.
Therefore, I am wondering if I use a less sensitive mic, ie. non-condensers, will it be better? So that I do not have to work many late nights if I have MANY IMPORTANT recording sessions.
Thanks and Regards,
[Charles]
