What is and how exactly do you use this technique? A friend of mine told me it has to do with two mics one in a cardiod and the other in a figure eight. Any comments GREATLY APPRECIATED. Or any other techniques to get a very lush 3D vocal sound.

Thanks a lot guys, I really appreciate this!

there is a new company, called THE, one of the founders is tayer, the guy of the soundd-room, who import the russian mikes.

KR-33A 33mm Condensor Capsule

do someone know this mikes?

I was just wondering what everyone is using for there signal path. Are you using individual boxes or a single channel strip? My signal path for vocals is as follows:
BLUE Blueberry or Soundelux U97
BLUE Kiwi cable
tc electronics GoldChannel
Monster StudioLink 1000 AES cable
MOTU 1296.

Hi,
I'm doing a favour for a friend this week, and in the process boldly going where no me has gone before. Everything should go fine, but I would be interested in anyone's input on the best way to mic a marimba.
Thanks,

Hi there,

I'm after some advice and opinions regarding specifying a complete system which will be used to record and analyse some vocal work. I work at a university and we are carrying out a series of experiments.

I always mic the front of the bass drum but, out of curiosity, I was wondering if people have had any success Micing the batter head - does it help with phase? what kind of sound do you get? maybe mic both and invert the phase of one mic?

I've heard repeatedly that one must check the phase of drum mics in relation to one another to find phasing problems. How does one go about doing this? I've heard things about using a "phase clicker" but I don't know what that is. Is it a procedure that one would perform which could be done with the phase meter on the console; or do you need to have a phase clicker or do you need both?

Hello,

ok, you have two extra tracks Micing a 4-pc drum kit and you have no mics on your toms and also no room mics. Do you set up two stereo room mics or two tom mics?
