Solidstate or Tube Vocal Mic?

Forums

Hi guys I'm looking for a good vocal mic to be paired up with my Sebatron pre. This mic will be used mainly for my music which is melodic rock, I have been recorded before using a U 87 and I liked the sound I got but I'm not looking to spend quite that much. There might be something more appropriate for my voice you can hear sound samples on my site at the bottom of my bands recording.

Vocal distortion FX and VTB-1

Forums

I do a lot of metal bands and they tend to want distortion on the vocals for some or all of the tracks. I've tried using plugins like the grungilizer, I've run the track through the Line 6 POD, Sansamp Bass DI and a few other Guitar distortion boxes. For the most part the bands are satisfied, but I'm not happy with the results I've achived at this point.
