Thanks for the welcome! You guys have been a great help so far! Thank you! I was wondering if you guys could comment, about me using an AT4040 with a PreSonus FireStudio Tube recording system (if you have heard it or know the specs), running through a laptop. This may also be a stupid question, but I am very new to recording with "actual equipment" I am confused about what you guys mean by aggressive sounding and smooth sounding. My budget for the mic and the preamp together is about $1600 Canadian before taxes, maybe a tiny bit more. With the PreSonus FireStudio Tube, I could connect it directly to my laptop, which would probably be easier for me to use.
Let me know your thoughts.
