I do the exact opposite. I use an EV ND96 for videoconferencing at work because I have a loud cat and live next to the train tracks and thus need something with a tight pattern. I tend to eat the mic so I've always had a bit of the "voice of God" thing going with the proximity effect bit after enough people said they were impressed with my "radio voice" I took it a step further. I now goose the lows a bit, gate enough to reduce breath noise, and apply a moderate amount of compression using my interface's DSP. People seem to love the way it sounds and it nicely complements my midrange-heavy voice.

You gotta give the people what they want and a guy half-whispering into a condenser sideways just ain't it :-) (at least in my case).
