My go-to LDC in my studio just died on me and I'm looking at either getting a Lewitt 240 or 440 to replace it.
Some backstory; I have been wanting to get my hands on a SM7B for warm, punchy vocals, but it's not in the budget right now.
I know a LDC doesn't sound like a SM7B, but I'm just wondering if it might be possible to kill 2 birds with one stone here. I know the 440 has a 1" transducer and the 240 is a bit smaller. I'm wondering if the smaller diaphragm on the 240 might lend itself more to the punchiness I'd like to achieve with an SM7B?
Is this question convoluted enough?
Thanks
