Must it? Have you ever been in a recording studio? Do
they use this type of mic for vocals there?

Yes. Many vocalists are used to their sound with a certain mic, and
prefer to use it.

I'd like a concrete example. I know of plenty who (obviously) use SM58s
etc on the road but use a proper mic in the studio. And for very good
reasons. All you have to do is record their voice using both types then
play it back to them solo. Not many would actually prefer the sound of an
SM58. If you want the strange frequency response of the 58 that can be
achieved by EQ a studio one. The other nasties are more difficult...

However, if you have a studio with nice acoustics, its possible to mic a
voice from a little more distance.

drop of detergent in distilled water and some baby buds -
and a steady hand.

Looks good on paper, but falls apart in the practical application. The
diaphragms of most mics I've seen are covered with a fine screen or
something like it.

On a decent make this removes for cleaning.

In NO WAY SHAPE or FORM is the NT-1 a vocal mic !!!!

Pray tell what determines a vocal mic,


** Try reading the stuff you sniped - ****HEAD.

There's no information to back up your claim in it...


** Yes there is - ****WIT.

In the very next line.



Despite many many years in the industry ...


** What industry is that ?

One which uses high quality microphones.


** Stop being so ****ing coy

- you **** for brains ****head .



Is being a know nothing bull**** artist now a recognised form of
employment in the UK ?

I suppose it's too much to hope you'd just answer the question asked?


** Yep.

Cos it is based on a logical fallacy.

Like every one of your ****ed ideas.
