Surprised not to have found much about this problem .

For my vocal recordings I am fairly happy with the clear tone I am getting from my set up , but I get a slight problem from sibilance . I can get rid of it in the mix by cutting a bit on the eq at high end , but then I really lose some presence from the vocals . I am not using reverb , so this is not the problem.

I have tried the "pencil" on the mike trick , but this did not seem to work. I set my pop filter around 8 inches back from the mike to ensure the vocalist is around 10" to a foot away. I have tried getting them to sing ata slight angle and various mike positions.

Any experience on mike placement helping with this pesky problem ( a can't afford a de esser) .

Am I placing the vocalist too close....?

send your track to someone with a 4416 who has Y56K, let them deEss your track, send back to you - voila!
it is my understanding from what i have read that tracks between 4416 and 16g are compatible.
