Peluso 2247se vs Rode Procaster

The past weekend I rented both the Peluso 2247 SE and the Rode Procaster microphones for tracking vocals and bass cabinets respectively. After a couple of takes I realized that neither my home recording setup nor my room were right for a mic as sensitive and bright as the 2247 SE.
I ended up using the Procaster and getting a much better result for HipHop vocals. The Peluso is a 2000$ mic while the Procaster is a 200$ mic. This is an example of how, in audio recording, the best thing to do is trust your ears. Spending more is not always going to lead to better results. The two best things you can do is work with what you have and experiment.
