New Vocal Mic advise
« on: February 15, 2009, 09:47:40 AM »
I usually use an SM58 live but I find them pretty muddy for my voice.  In contrast Studio condensers sound great and detailed.  Is there decent live condenser mics that can bring some of the sparkle and presence that I like in the studio to the stage?  Does the increased presence increase feedback issues?

I'd really like a mic that could do both studio and live, an alright job at both would be good....

I've always thought the M3 looked like a great mic, but haven't had the opportunity to try one yet.
