hey guys,

Hey guys. Been recording a while but havn't done much of this. I was hired to record a 60 piece vocal choir and instrument ensemble. (clarinets, flute, trumpet, cello, violin, keyboard piano, upright bass) It will be in a hugh church and we'll have a run thru tongight Wed 12/03/03 so i'll have a practice run.

I was recently approached by a church choir that would like to record a few songs on location. I have essentially three room choices: The first being a massive octagon shaped room with incredibly high ceilings (carpeted floors). The second is a smaller room with about a 20 ft. ceiling (carpeted floors).

How would you it?

I'm thinking about uing my two Tlm 103 in an Ortf xy at around the directors place and risen above him/her. perhaps add 2 side mics like 2 elation km201 condensers.I will use a Millennia quad preamp and a Tascam hr78 recorder.

Does anyone have any favorite setups when it comes to choirs? like A-B or M/S, decca trees?

Best regards / Toby

i need some help and advice on recording a choir. its a 65 piece choir. havent had much experience so any help is good for me. thanks, jeremy

I'm going to be recording a small choir (15-20 people) in the next few days, and they're going to be singing with a backing track. I'd like any advice on monitoring for them, and Micing the choir in a small room of about 15' x 20'.

Hello all,

Hi I'm working on a choir-project and would be glad to get some tips of microphone placement.
I'm using 2 Neumann U87 as nearfield and a peral stereomic as ambience and it's the nearfield that I'm asking about.
