Thanks for the interesting reply. The Senn 421's seem to have a lot of boost starting around 2k, right?A Senn 421 might be interesting, its different than the SM7b but not a LDC.....I don't have many mics, Id say the KSM32(MDC) is darker, as in flat than my KSM44.(LDC)..I liked a few tube mics but they were kind of a hassle with power supply, cables, a bit of noise too...I tend to prefer XLR, slap it in, Dynamics keep it easier too...but sometimes don't have that little sparkle a LDC does.
theses are all in the $200-400 used.
I just grabbed a used United Twin87 ....@ $435 shipped/taxes, it does the darker less sensitive "vintage" mode or the "modern" mode higher sensitivity brighter mode. Kind of interested to hear it.
I think of darker as less sensitive, less treble, flat freq....
smooth... I think of opto-cell compressors..
I agree with you on... "I think of darker as less sensitive, less treble, flat freq." Right on. whys that so hard to find though i wonder...
