Do congas need to be off the ground when being miced ?
Im having trouble with them cutting through on live gigs, and I have hi pass filter on desk
up around 300 hz to get enough level without feedback.
What microphones are better on congas?
I've been recording a set of congas with 2 matched dynamic mics X-Y and then a 3rd PZM mic 5 feet away mounted on a wall.
When I listen to the X-Y pair they sound fine. When I listen to the PZM room mic it sounds fine.
any tips?
hey all
i'm getting ready to record congas for some acoustic tunes i'm doing. does anyone have any favorite mics/set-ups for recording congas?
Has anyone done an internal mic mount for congas? If you've done it or heard it done I'd like your opinions, and if you haven't done it I'd still like your thoughts on what the issues might be--pros and cons, etc.
I'm looking at it ONLY from a 'cool install' point of view--on all other aspects I'm clueless. I've not seen ANY references to the practice.
Hi-
I'm a small studio guy who is looking to buy a good "house" set for using on rock and/or roll sessions. I know about the LP/ Remo stuff/options and might very well go that route, I'm just wondering if there are other small makers out there that are recommended by anyone? (Price around 400 per but would be willing to pay less.)
