I definitely record bands when I can but do mostly VO etc. U87 and sometimes SM7 to API style pre or G9. To 1176 works every time. What works on music works perfectly there too. Just the compressor settings are different and you don't need the atty after the pre.

And record in a dead space where you move all your mobile bass traps around the talent and the mic. Remember the mic is pointing at the talent in cardioid mode. Don't waste ALL of your traps behind the mic.
