An EQ bost or cut is a resonance. :-)

Have you tried to tame the lift with an EQ? Still harsh or is the harshness actually the extra energy as such and not distortion? What about using the capsule at an angle?

KM183 for example has a serious bump in the upper range, effectively making it flat in the diffuse field. That mic sounds good and natural used right IMO.

Earthwork omnis has a resonance as well but they use EQ to make the mic flat. Extremly natural sound.

Just ventilating my thoughts.
