I'll be recording some vocals using a Samson MTR201 condenser mic, which has a cardioid pattern.
I'm curious: Are there advantages/disadvantages to coming from above (with the mic upside down in the cage on a boom)?
That's the way mics have always been set up in any studios I've used. I believe in some cases the studio will do that with tube mics to prevent overheating.
But what about in this context? I like it that way because the mic seems more out the way.
I googled this and like a lot areas the results were pretty inconclusive. Wondering what the consensus is here.
