best mic arrangement to blend off centre source to main ORTF
Hi.
I am going to record a concert of the 'Armed Man' in a large church.
The main stereo pair will be flown above+/- conductor position (MC930/ORTF)

Hi. I record the sermons at church. A definite upgrade I'm looking for is the microphone. The mics we currently have sound fine enough in terms of quality, but their pickup is awful. Also, they make a TON of noise when even remotely touched anywhere, even on the handle!
Our school has a vocally talented group of 8th graders. Their choir director would like to do a recording of the group before the school year ends that could be distributed to the families of the kids...not for sale, but for keepsake...although we'd still like to capture the best recording we can...Both the choir director and I are amateur at best, but we're both fairly technical people...
Sample from Christmas Choral Concert
I was called in on very short notice to record a weekend's worth of choral music by the Indianapolis Children's Choir - an organization that serves over 3000 kids in central Indiana.
Here's a piece from their Youth Chorale - high school kids.
I recorded a children's choir concert today. The space was a large church with a lot of ambience (4 sec. reverb) Two suspended overhead mics were used to capture the choir sound. Unfortunately the piano was in close proximity to these mics, underneath and in front of the conductor and choir. The lid was closed.
I've been looking at the Audix Carbon fiber boom systems and wondering if our crew has had the opportunity to use them for choirs, and overheads? Maybe TheJackAttack?
I'm particularly interested in the Miniature Mics like:
M1250B
and
M1255B
Last night I recorded the Indianapolis Children's Choir for track titled "How Many Christmases" sung by Rosanne Cash on some upcoming project. From what I understand, they are collecting tracks from choirs all over the world to mix into this track, so my track will be a drop in the bucket, rather literally.
I see lots of people using 40-50 or even more tracks on projects, and I cant figure out what in the world they are all for. I dont think Ive ever used more than about 20 tracks for a song, and usually its less than that. Can someone shed some light on this? Even better would be some example tracksheets that show whats going on with all those tracks.
Thanks!
Hi everyone,
I am an audio engineering student and I was looking for some insight. I am doing a recording of a percussion ensemble concert on Saturday and one of the pieces is huge. I wanted to get as much insight/advice as possible before then.
