I'm recording a band with quite a shrill sounding vocalist.

• Its high, scream y, and screechy.
• I have a C414 that goes through a Great River MP-1NV into a PreSonus interface into logic.
• I am considering getting something else to soften, and improve the week spots of the vocals.

Anybody have some experience with that mic?
I have one NTV and TLA preamp 5051.
Not bad, but I'm not satisfied with sound.
My input volume on TLA is very low, any
stronger signal from mic causes distortion on
preamp, DRIVE diode lightning and sound is
very much in midrange.
Is it good combination:
Tube mic + Tube preamp

Anyone tried these? I currently use a Neumann TLM 103 which I like a lot but wish to add a new option. I was considering the BLUE Mouse, but these (RODE NTV or NTK and the SP T3) sound interesting. Or are they a step down from what I'm using. Mostly Male Vocal use.
