WD Quick Mix

[dcp10200]

As far as I know we'll get a Shure SM7 soon. It has proven to be super solid for rock vocals. Maybe that could fix further vocal issues for future mixes.

I can't say too much on the SM7b but it's a pig for preamp gain, if you're set on one get a Cloudlifter by cloud mics. https://www.long-mcquade.com/18095/Pro_A...ivator.htm This link will explain it better than I can but basically it uses phantom power and does some impedance matching so that your preamp doesn't have to use as much gain to drive the mic.

One mic I can recommend is the Sennheiser MK4. It's a Large Diaphragm Condenser mic that I got as a Christmas gift last year and it's been my go to for vocals and acoustic instruments ever since (also it works as an outside kick mic if you want that vintage midrange kick sound). It has a really crisp and clean sound but still has a nice low end presence so it doesn't sound too harsh. From the experience I had with the SM7b it was a dark sounding mic and needed some high end eq added after the fact, great for a vocalist who has a naturally bright voice or for radio voiceover work and Unclean vocals.

Overall the mix sounds nice, alittle overcompressed as you mentioned but that can be fixed.

Thanks for the tracks again and cheers,
