I think the room reacts particularly badly with with nasally singers - either the mic or the room or both are somehow emphasizing the upper mids, (or maybe cancelling out the low mids?) and it's ugly! Attached are a few examples where the suckometer is just going off the scale. the female vocal was recorded with the P12 and the other two travesties were the work of the LE47.

What perplexes me is that with some people I get a fine sound and with others, no matter where I put the mic, or which of the two I use, it just doesn't turn out well.

Help!

Anyone? I'm interested.
