ksm 32(cheaper) sm7b or at 4040
hi

my current setup is focusrite isa one -- rosetta 200 -- cubase on mac pro
i am currently using at 2020 as my main mic for vocals and acoustic guitar only
now i want to upgrade my mic. this mic will not be for one particular voice but it will be using for any singer hiring the studio. so the mic should be versatile. my budget is upto 500 usd maximum.

i am mainly confused between

shure ksm 32 ,
shure sm7b and
at 4040.

i know there are various threads for these mics but in my country i am getting shure ksm 32 cheaper than at 4040. is ksm 32 better than at 4040

please help me decide between these 3 mics.

I personally would go with the shure... try them out if you can though.
I have an sm7b but would not recommend it as an only mic.

My Recordings/Credits

The 4040 is a nice mic, but I prefer the KSM32. It is an extremely versatile mic. I also have an SM7B which I love, but I think the KSM32 will perform better with a wider range of singers and its also a great mic for tons of other stuff as well.
