User Feedback
Users say that the Spirit is an excellent vocal mic. It straddles the line between transparency and some lift on the high end to give it a bit more sheen.
Many users noted that they didn't need much processing to get their vocal recordings to fit in a mix.
The sound signature, while excellent, may not complement some voices; particularly sibilant ones.
