Hello,
I am looking at a stereo mic kit to do simple remote recordings of live performances. Fairly diverse music genres - some chamber music, some big band, and some bluegrass. Most will be in a few decent halls in my region.
I have a collection of decent studio mics in pairs (AT4050's, SM81's,RODE NT5's), some good "spot mics"
Hi
For recording acoustic guitar (and sometimes placing the mic within the guitar itself), which would be better: the DPA 4060 or the 4061?
Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone has heard the demo CD for this mic.
I don't know what they were thinking with the shoot-outs between different mics.
The vocal shoot-out convinced me I wanted a U87.
The guitar section shows how wonderful the Sennhieser MKH series is.
I've been considering the dpa4060 as a very discreet all-purpose omni. Would it be suitable for more distant micing? I've heard some great recordings where it was used in a binaural system, but in each case the sound source was quite loud, so the SN ratio didn't really matter.
Thanks
John
Okay, these two mics are essentially identical with the exception of the senitivity. Given their relatively high noise floor, I would think that, for stringed instruments the high sens (4060) would be the better choice. I've had a lot of experience with the 4061, but none with the 4060.
Anybody?
