Hello all. I've got a track I've been working on for quite some time, so objectivity is getting a little strained here. I really tried leaning into saturation across the mix for the first time with this one, and I like the way it turned out, but I'm just curious if that's only my ears getting used to it. So, if you notice any issues with it or have any tips in general when it comes to using saturation like that, please share! Hope you enjoy listening, and thanks for taking the time. My main reference was "Dilemma" by Green Day for overall sound/loudness. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/vsbf62xsaw6p7i00hk30s/Robots-MIX-4ab.wav?rlkey=pcdaej6gpcazp2xx6fqm5dtfe&st=a62qupum&dl=0

After a few questionable gear decisions, I now own a Sennheiser E965, Rode NT1-A, and AKG C3000, and I’m overthinking which one to use for vocal recording. Which mic will actually make my recorded vocals sound great instead of exposing all my bad habits? What are the key sound differences between them? Or take a vote which one I should use 😊

If you want to share a link to a new release or anything else music related, please post it in this thread. Thanks!
