The HC-4 element isn't supposed to sound like you; it's supposed to cut through QRM. Personally, I can't stand the harsh sound of it, but it does do what it's supposed to do. If you want a mic element that sounds like you, you should be using the HC-5. It is voice-tailored also, but much less extreme than the HC-4. I use a Pro Set with HC-5 and get excellent audio reports.
Don't forget to set the config AF GAIN parameter to HI. This is important for the Pro Set.
