hey-yo,
i was just listening back and forth between recordings i've done over the years (both of them) of vocals on various mics and found that i seem to be happier with the way my voice sounds through my trusty (and cheap) ev pl77b battery-powered sdc than it does through the three ldc's i've recorded through (an AT i don't remember the model of, an AKG solidtube and a shure ksm44).
i realize there's a million reasons why this is hardly a stable argument to stray from the proven advantages of an ldc for vocals (most notably that i haven't tried very many, i've never worked with a genius sound engineer, i'm used to the way i sound through the ev because i own it, my voice is my voice, my ears are my ears, etc. etc.)
i also realize and firmly agree with the common-sense maxim about cakes.
but anyways, the point of my post is:
is there anyone else out there who finds an sdc is sometimes the right choice for recording vocals in a studio situation? and if so, what situations?
