I do love the GR for vocals however, and with dynamics on guitars (MD421, M201, e906).
Would love to try the Pacifica some day! |
I'm with Doublehelix on this one: to me the GR works better with mics like the 421 or a 57 than with ribbons. The low end from a ribbon/GR combo can be a bit much, and often gets cut anyhow...but the GR can do a good job taming any perceived harshness from a dynamic. And yes, the GR works well with vocals.
Again, both are very nice pres...just depends on trying them both out and figuring out what works best for your setup.
