Dear forum fellows
I'm now a happy owner of a pair of the Microtech Gefells M270, but I'm desperately dissappoited in my recording skills while using them.

Well, it was my first production when I was recording with omnis, but still I have my ears, but they let me down.

Hi!

Now i have purchase 2 Microtech Gefell 296 :lol:

And today i was with Markus Wargh and try out some distance,
and space between microphones.

What is your opinion on this recording, it's a finnish psalm i think.

As I posted in a different post in this section I am doing a radio show and the star of that show is a 1928 Wurlitzer Pipe organ. The organ console sits in a hall and all the pipes are located in the basement. The sound arrives at the hall though grates in the floor of the hall (2.5 feet wide and about 20 feet long) .

Im currently looking for a good quiet pair of cans so i can expieriment with mic placement techniques(around drumsets and Amps).

My price range is preferably between 75-170. But if there is a jewel at 200 dollars ill splurge. I dont intend on spending over 200.

Hails to all,

Im new to the forum, and Im glad I found it. I have recrntly just gotten into recording audio, and I am in love with it. Right now I'm trying to soak up any info I can get before I try to go to school for Audio production.

Anyway, My band is gearing up to record a demo in my little home studio. The gear I'll be using is:

Why does a mic placed upside down or right side up but at the same height and angle produce a diff sound

I'd really like to hear the community's views on this difficult subject. What are you're favourite stragegies:

Spaced pair: big stereo image but big also on phase cancellation problems?
X/Y: No phase problems but unexciting and narrow stereo image?
ORTF: Happy medium?

How far away from the guitar? 6"? 12"? 18"? 24"? Angled up/down?

Where should the mics be for double tracking a vocal
next to each other?
1 ft apart and 1 ft from source?
I seem to be getting phase problems
Thanks in advance
Big Kenny

Hi all, I've attached a short clip of an acoustic part. I can't get it to sound anything like I want it to. I think part of the problem is my lack of mics. How would you guys approach recording a part like this. The tune is mostly just this part and a vocal. How would you mic the guitar and what mics/pres would you choose that you think might suit the part?

Hi,
I have a low budget Proj studio and am using a cheaper Oktava MC312 and a Presounus preamp. The problem I have is If I record quiet vocals they sound great (considering a cheap Mic and PreSonus Preamp).
