Yetipur,
Some may be jealous of your owning an Avalon.
I take the view that you buy the best kit you can afford, then try as hard as you can to understand all its features and what works best. It's a learning curve for everyone here to understand good and bad gear.
I bet some of the people here bought a synth or keyboard without knowing how to program it ("we just wanted the sounds").
I bet some of the people here changed pickups on their guitars without knowing what impedance is, or what capacitors do, or the difference between linear and logarithmic potentiometers.
There comes a time when you have to simply abandon advice and dive straight in and purchase gear and create music. The product choice is irrelevant. If the salesman lies to you you can insert the purchase in their rectum and get a refund. If it works as planned you focus on the music, and have one less piece of kit to wrestle with.
Take the time to optimize your results - try learn a little about mic choice, mic placement, and vocal technique. One book which may help is at

At least your vocals might sound better than the crap I record.
