sean ingram is a bad ass vocalist. he guested on a track on our first record... handed him lyric sheet, he walks into booth, hacks up some shit from his throat and nails it on first take. done.takeout wrote:Yeah, a friend of mine who tracked Coalesce back in the day used to hand Sean Ingram one of those. Watching some on Ebay now.drumsound wrote:M88 will take EQ well, plus it has great rejection if you want to track vocals while tracking basics. I usually use onr or scratch vocals because I can actually listen to the scratch without the drum being all fucked up like when you use a mic with crappy rejection...
How's the Club these days?

The 'Club is in suspended animation. We're doing something meaner and dumber now.

Yes, give them a 58 to growl into and put a condenser out in front of them. Run the 58 through distortion and compress the condenser and blend together. I've had this work very well and not so well, but try it.

Had vocalist a year or so back that needed a hand held and moved around a lot. We went through the usuals 57 and 58 (reg and beta), then onto a little more abnormal 421, e609, and then finally ended up loving the Audix i5. For this vocalist it rejected a lot of the handling noise, had less pops and sibilance from pushed air, and just sounded good.
I might suggest the i5, but if you have the time and patience it would be best to do what we did and go through as many mics as it takes until you find the one that works for this vocalist on this recording.
