Condensers are a type of microphone. So-called because they use a capacitor made of flexible film to pick up sound vibrations, and capacitors used to be called "condensers". Sometimes still are, but rarely.
Oh my yes. I am clearly tired and impaired. I started thinking wtf is a speaker condenser.....

The condensor mic is a pain. I don't think sm57s sound bad. But if I get it right does fill in things way I like.

Sorry man
 
After getting schooled a bit and applying feedback.

Dv77 to me are not scooped. At least in the room. At least they weren't.

V30s after a few tests now, months ago. They record so much better with sm57 and cheap condensers.

I have hope hesu demons and/or lcfr150s fill things out more. Hesu is low end high mid and high heavy. Can get sizzle can get fizzle just depends.
Lcfr150 I havent messed with too much recording. I've heard sweet spot is dead center. Which does work but at the lost of low end across the board.

The double tracked guitars. I suspect an aby may work but. Rerecording parts has been the most useful. Thanks folks. I didn't realize 2 mics on a single recording was different. This is better. Just need to figure out my monitors. I moved everything to one room so not great. I'll figure it out.

And the software I'll figure out too. Filters make it too processed on my software and kill some good stuff. But im learning. So we'll see how it works. But true doubletracked is so much better.
 
That said car does OK with some sounds (low) and frfr + cell phone are not good. That might be to taste and a learning curve
What I was saying wasn't about how well this or that system deals with lows, but rather, cleaning up the low end in tracks so the mix isn't tubby and / or muddy.
