The way I understand it, is because most audio people are not
engineers and they use their ears to listen. The colorization of
certain mics may distort the sound in a pleasant way and they judge it
by that.
I would use a measurement mic to record anything (if I could afford
it) and then rather process the signal afterwards. This would be the
epitome of high fidelity audio engineering, or so is my understanding.
Is the color that's being added by expensive
special purpose
intrument/vocal mics the reason?
So it seems.
