I totally agree with that. |
This rings pretty true to me. The room is king.
Back when I was working in a studio that did a lot of VO work, my go to chain was a U87-API-Urei La4
Another good choice was an RE20-Focusrite ISA115
If you go with an SM7, make sure you match it with a quiet hi-gain pre like John Hardy M1
