What you want is an Omni condenser. No proximity effect, same fidelity. Omni dynamics like Re15 and M101 might get you into the ball park with some pros (cheaper) and cons (less detail) But you can still get a great vox with even a 214, you just need to find the right off axis placement to balance what you want with the trade offs. 1. Top of your mic grill to your chin and sing over it gets you a conversational image that feels natural. 2. Just calibrate with headphones cranked, turn your head around til you hear the angle you want while recording. Document and photograph what you like. Angling the mic just off to the side pointed at your cheek has worked great for my sessions.
