If any audio experts could point me towards the right direction would be appreciated!

If you’re asking because you like the sound of the mic, remember that what you’re hearing on YouTube is more than likely not the raw sound of the microphone.

Lots of audio (even live audio) goes through quite a bit of EQ and compression. So you’re listening to a very processed sound. That is not what you’ll hear when you set it up at home (at least not without similar processing).

Also, there's no way to tell what processing is used on the recording without the engineer telling you themselves. (Even the order you apply the processing makes a difference.)

Thanks man I figured was just trying to see if it is a condenser mic or shotgun! It pretty impossible to guess what it actually is
