Do yall like using pultec or something like Pro Q4 for these type of mics?
Which plugin you use doesn't matter as much as what you do with it.
You really just have to take the time and get to know what to listen for. There's no shortcut. And there's no "one size fits all" for equing any source or mic.
You probably had to add highs with an sm7b (which is a dynamic mic). Now you have a condenser, so the high end will change drastically to the point where you may not add any highs... And may even take some away.
How you EQ is going to rely on a lot of variables. What's your room sound like? How close do you get to the mic? Is the mic above or below or level with your mouth while you're recording? Is it off axis at all? All these factors will affect the tone of your recorded sound. And that doesn't yet take into consideration at all what your actual source sounds like, which is the most important thing.
There's no shortcut to doing this. You just have to spend the time it takes to develop your ear and understand what happens at different frequencies so you know what to do when you hear something that needs adjusted.
Maybe try posting some samples of what you've recorded and people might chime in with suggestions...
