| I second the c1000s. I've had better luck with it than a multitude of nicer condensors. It's pretty 57ish but way fatter. The key is to use it just like a 57. 30 degrees off axis and a little off center. All the larger diaphragm ones tend to have a problem with proximity effect. The c1000s actually sounds worse soloed than say my cad VX2 but sits much nicer in the mix. It also has a somewhat similar frequency response curve to a 121. |
