Hey everyone,
I'm in the market for a new vocal mic. The Audio Technica AT2020 that I've been using doesn't quite cut it anymore... It's harsh and thin sounding. I used to like the brightness but now its just annoying.
I've been doing a good bit of research, and it looks like its down between these two contendors: Oktava MK 319 and Shure SM7b.
I'm going to be recording clean male and female vocals as well as harsh vocals. If it was just for the male vocals, I'd get the SM7b, but I don't know how well it would translate for a female singer. The Oktava gets great reviews, and it'd be nice to have a condensor for other acoustic instrument sources ( violin, acoustic guitar, etc. )
What would you recommend?
Thanks!
