Hey Everyone,

I am going to be recording an African marimba ensemble very soon and would like to see if anyone had any thoughts on set up/microphones/techniques!

Hi, i work mostly in classical music production, contemporary exactly, and lately i work with chromatic percussion instruments like vibes, marimba, glockenspiel etc.

Any recommendations,

between stereo micing or punctual with only one mic?

I am going to record a student percussion recital some time next month. I'll get more details later, but I'm assuming a good deal of marimba or other mallet instruments. What do you recommend. There is an interesting thread on this here . Any other suggestions?

Hi,
I'm doing a favour for a friend this week, and in the process boldly going where no me has gone before. Everything should go fine, but I would be interested in anyone's input on the best way to mic a marimba.
Thanks,
Doug
