I've gotten a few songs to mix with VX2 as the vocal mic (different singers) and none of them is easier to mix than U87.
FWIW, I haven't heard it being used for other purposes though. |
Maybe it was the pre, processing on the way in, room, technique or other factor. Its hard to say without knowing about the person who tracked with it. I have never found that to be the case and I use it on all sorts of things. I just used it on a female pop thing this week (in fig8) and it dstroyed everything from a 414 to M149. I didnt have to EQ a thing other than a little bit of air and even without it the track would have sounded great. If you have a chance, give it a shot yourself. With proper technique and signal chain I bet you would find it really great.
