That's about what I was thinking too. I don't plan on using them on any vocals anyway, so I'm not super-worried about that, although I do keep the pop screen handy for all vocal sessions.eeldip wrote:or you could just back off the mic a bit. bright mics work well from distance i find, as long as the room sounds nice.
screen mods, as i understand it, tend to deal with really HF stuff, prevent smearing there. as only the HF material bounces around those cages. i really didnt hear that much of a difference on the high highs, but mostly it was because i was distracted by the whole 5k, 6k, thing going on there. (also, listening on my grado 80s which are decently bright to begin with). PEAKY PRESENCE. the pokey frequencies.
i dont think it will hurt the mic to pull off those screens if you keep pop screens around for vocalists.
I've got a session coming up at the house on the 9th/10th. Maybe I'll try them on something then.
