Recording violin, cello and harpsichord

Hello!

I explain a little about my situation. I am a violinist and I have some experience in recordings (rather being recorded, which has given me some experience especially in editing) but I do not have much experience as far as recording equipment is concerned, now I only have a Zoom H6 and a couple of mics Studio Projects C4 with which I usually record some concerts.

Lavalier for Horn Mic

Forums

This is probably a really stupid question but I'm just getting started with this and I have a pretty tight budget. I was curious as to weather I could get away with using a cheap lavalier microphone from Amazon to mic a sax, trumpet, or trombone. Could one of these mics handle this or would it overload the mic as it's not exactly made for that?

New Project

This past weekend, I started a new project; it's an album being recorded for a charitable cause. Titled The O.A.S.I.S. Project, (Ohio Artists Singing In Support) net proceeds from the sales of this album, which includes a who's who of veteran Cleveland/Akron/Canton songwriters and musicians, will be donated to facilities that specialize in Opiate Addiction Recovery.
