Glad it helped! I thought you might be interested! And thanks for the kind words, I'm not much of a singer, I usually write stuff and somebody else with a much better voice sings it haha! And thanks for the feedback on the M88, it does sounds good, it's so hard to judge one's own voice that I tend to trust other ears! Actually I have used the SM7 through my Capis pushing them a bit into distortion quite a bit on my vocals for my personal project which is a blend of really traditional folk but with almost punk vocals and it sounds really good, I sang in my natural voice for the test because my voice can get super nasal when I push it and thought that would probably be a bit annoying to listen to for some people ! Sings it Ha-Ha?
You write for The Joker?
Or Napoleon the XIV?
(FWIW, I believe that the pitch shifting effect on the vocal is probably a rare example of the use of the rare and elusive "Eltro" device, as the record came out in the pre-digital era.)
Lol. my dad used to sing that they're coming to take me away song all the time when I was a kid! Drove me nuts!

What model is the Shoeps? I've never even touched, let alone used any of their mics. There's a richness in your examples that is speaking to me. Schoeps cmc6s, with the MK41 hypercardioid cap here. I also have pairs of the cardioid and the wide cardioid capsules. They're great great mics. Amazing on anything acoustic, pianos, overheads...

Schoeps can give you the feeling of being at the inner sanctum if you will, of German mic technology. Through a great pre they can be wonderfully revealing. I dont own any but my experience some years ago through a Nagra pre clearly showed the sound of both the pre and the room not to mention the talent. Its amazing how they still by and large fly off the radar. Cheers, Ross

They do seem pretty rare in the US, I can tell you that's not the case in Europe. They're extremely common, mostly in the classical world. They do seem pretty picky preamp wise, at least compared to the kms. I did a little preamp shootout a couple months back where everything except for the electric guitar ( sm57) was tracked through the Schoeps: www.dropbox.com/s/j1eas0hydt34xd2/MYSTERY%20PREAMP.mp3?dl=0Here's the Schoeps on Overhead: www.dropbox.com/sh/rks2gjaa1sfxrhh/AADbekyoUbQAj1t_-5DR5Zqka?dl=0

Great stuff Brice. Both microphones sound exceptional. Schhoeps just gets a bit more detail clarity. But the Beyer i$ more practical for me. Chris

It's a downright Beyer's market! Chris
