| I like the P-1 and 583 best. It is hard to tell because of level and performance differences. On the female vocals the 583 sounds much louder and in your face. Sounds also like the mic is closer but again that could be just level difference. My only beef with the 583 is that is sounds so good it makes you listen to the sound more than to the performance. It is almost like an effect on the source and that could be called for or not. I think the p-1 is more balanced but I think it would be more obvious with more level on a few tracks. Both are great and each could be first pick depending on song. |
