Hi,
Yesterday I made a new song and for once I though it sounded pretty
good. Last time I recorded, I used my 635a for the guitar and my
EV RE-510 for my vocals. But this time I switched.
The RE-510 sounds really good on a guitar amp combo. Less ambient
than the 635a to say the least, more punch. And the 635a gives
that 70's feel to my voice which I particularly like... a bit like
talking through a phone.
Results may vary...
I'm curious. I've mixed many top-name performers' vocals using
635As. They never sounded anything like "talking through a phone".
Being as difficult to damage as the 635A is, what else could possibly
wrong with your recording setup?

Well a bit mid-rangey???
I don't know how to explain.
Maybe it's my voice, maybe it's the microphone. But I like it.
I'll try to upload it when I get back from work to let you hear what I
mean
Also maybe it's the ART compressor that gives this tone. I don't know,
really.
The EV 635A is "tailored for voice" and sounds very natural. Try a take
without the ART to hear if there's a difference. Otherwise, it's your
voice. Maybe the more extended highs, HF peaks and proximity effect of
the RE510 are your reference. If anything, these "additions" might be
deceptive when compared to your actual sound.

The proximity on the RE-510 is not that bad when I set the LFcut at
ON.
But I think that it is way to bright for my voice.
Maybe for a girl's voice it would be okay. I tried it with an
accoustic guitar, and it sounds pretty good too.
Anyway the thing is, with the RE510 on the cab, I don't hear the room
reverb ( which is a nice thing because it sounds bad in my little
apparment room)
I think it was the room that gave the muddy sound on my guitar. Now it
sounds good.
And it may be because of the room too that my voice has a midrange
peak now.
Ah, well, had I read down a bit further... this addresses what I was
suggesting.

Lol thanks Fletch :P
