Hi,
From the options you have provided, the Rode NT-2A would be the best choice. Its a dual diaphragm multipolar mic like the SP C3 but is superior in its handling of sources. Certainly, for vocals ... |

Hi,

Hi,
The NT1A does have a bright top end. In fact this is rather a boon for recording voice as well as strings and woodwinds.

Hi,
Welcome to the forum.

Rather than discuss LDC's in the thread, I'm attracted by the EV RE20 for Vox. If any one has the opportunity, please try out the MD 421 II! I've found its voice handling characteristics to ... |

Hi,
I don't think its necessary to go in for the costliest mics. Superb recordings have been done without the use of Rolls Royce equivalents among mics. Now that you've clarified that you need a cr ... |
