I have a Roland Tri-Capture interface and Sonar X1 LE software. I have a Shure Beta 57a dynamic mic, an MXL 4000 large diaphragm condenser and an MXL 603s small diaphragm condenser. The 4000 is selectable between cardioid, omni and figure 8 pattern. Low budget, but it has gotten me started. The Tricapture has only one XLR input so stereo Micing is out (I think).

So I just realized my church has a huge set of really nice handbells sitting in one of the storage attics under some old tables, so naturally I'm going to put them to use. Since its not for a specific song in mind, I'm going to record each one and then use them in a sequencer. The problem is though, I've never recorded handbells, or any brass for that matter.
