Many thanks Plush. It seems to be working now in Chrome. The Windows Media Player 48 Kbps sounds pretty bad though, lots of artifacts. The AAC+ is probably better, but I am too chicken to download yet ...

Hi Stax, monitoring in a small room with monitors near a mixing desk or any desk for that matter is asking for trouble.

Bob Katz sits in a lounge type room on a couch with a wireless keyboard and m ...

Would like to, but the "Listen Live" link doesn't seem to do anything, it doesn't load media player or play anything. Sad

What's so special about it? How does it differ to the SF24? I love my SF24, now almost exclusively used for choral miking.

Yeah, the prominent pick noise is mainly because its a tortoise shell pick and not a plastic one. Its not raining and its just in the lounge room of my little apartment, not near the window.

Quality gear doesn't really exhibit this problem. Both Schoeps and Neumann have modified their mic circuits to all but eliminate it. Cheap unshielded recorders are another problem.

Because the Zoom ...

Jeremy, wonderful rich orchestral sound, but I found the piano mic a bit too prominent or too close. What an excellent hall by the sound of things. Nice one.

Just bought a pair of M150's and recorded my old D35. These mics are stunning, quite superior to all I have heard before. Looking forward to doing my next piano CD with them, but in the meantime, here ...

Sorry, I am in a nitpicking mood.

Also, a lot of people will tell you that you need to have the ensemble inside the 90 degree pattern of the mics. I vehemently disagree.

Any sources outside the ...

I should add that there are no books, to my knowledge, with restricted subject matter on classical recording techniques, the market size would be miniscule. The references above are written by classic ...
