Can anyone tell me which microphone James used for his vocals on Death Magnetic (used it for St.Anger as well I think). It can be clearly seen in the M:M-videos from HQ or from the SoundCity-Studios, you can see it many times on the "Making Magnetic" DVD but I just can figure out what mic that is.
I'm quite familiar with microphones but I dont know that one, so I figure it is some brand or type often used in the US, but quite unknown here in Europe.
If anybody could provide a link that would be awesome.
I know on one of the clips on Making Magnetic, he is using a Sure (sp) mic

Naa, I dont mean the Shure microphone. That's one of the ones he uses when he plays guitar and sings at the same time. No, I mean the mic for the vocal recordings.
Don't know the brand of that one. Just to make clear though, there is much effects and tweaking post-recording on DM. Autotune can clearly be heard on Cyanide, U3 etc. But it's only for single notes here and there, that's why he doesn't sound too computerized ( which would be the case when Auto Tune is used on several notes in a row due to the transitions between notes coming out as far unnatural and simply non-human). You might allready know all of that, just to make sure so you won't go and get one of those surely expensive mics and don't get the right sound right after you've stopped recording.
