Curious what everyone is using on vocals? I’ve got a 47 clone that I love, but it’s also hard to beat an SM7 sometimes. It’s a classic for a reason!

    My locker isn’t huge, but taken to the Lewitt LCT440. Quite crisp and modern.

    Tracked a singer with alternative vocals with a few almost-screams recently and it did a great job!

      I’ve been looking at getting one of those myself recently. Do you have any experience with recording full blown screams with it? I’m a metal guy, and as usual I cant find a single sound demo of how it sounds through screams.

      Then again, I’ve read a lot of stellar reviews for it, so I figure it’ll probably be great no matter what I record with it

        Not metal calibre screams I’m afraid, but it handled the pseudo-screamo/post hardcore vibe that this vocalist was doing very well.

        I think it’d handle a lot of modern metal well!

    I’m hoping more people post here because I’m currently shopping for a new condenser mic for vocals. I’ve been using the mic that came with my Scarlett 2i2. Surprisingly, I don’t hate the results I’m getting, but I’d like to try something a bit higher quality. Which 47 clone are you using OP?
