I got a new mic! An AKG C214 and honestly, I HAD NO IDEA WHAT I WAS MISSING. This mic makes me sound like an angel!! I thought I was happy with my Rode NT-1. I really thought I was. I just had no idea how crisp and melodic a mic could make my voice! I don’t even want my NT-1 now…sorry Rode. I just didn’t know what I was missing.
