Measurement Microphone Suggestions

Forums

Hello, I'm a student looking to build an impedance tube setup and need some expert knowledge on the microphones. For those unfamiliar with impedance tube they basically setup a standing wave along the length of the tube and the pressure is measured at various locations which in turn allows you to calculate the acoustic impedance at the sample end.

Video Studio - Need advice about direction mic / boom mic to kills background noise

Forums

Hello all and thank you for having me.

Ok, I think this is a strange one however I think that an audio forum would be the best!

I have a video studio which is great however I need help with the audio.

I have an amplifier and (I think) an omnidirection MIC. I will get the make and modles later today and put it in this post.

The problems I have is:

Do I need a different mic?

Forums

I've been playing around recording some friends and am having troubles getting the vocals to sound like I want. I am using a PG58. The vocals are way to shrill and to take this away I either have to EQ/compress it a ton or get the singer to hold the mic really far back and sing a lot softer. Would a mic with less high-endbe better? Any suggestions would be great.

My drum mics

Forums

I finally can record stereo drums but need some advice on which specific mic to put where. I have anSM58, a Sennheiser e835, an MXL 990, and an MXL 991 condenser. I have an ATM 25 on the kick, so that's taken care of. Just trying to figure out which mics should be left and right, which one I should put on my rack toms, and if I should put one directly overhead or on the snare. Please help!
