Does anyone know where to find more information about Adam Kasper's Micing techniques ? Or do you know what microphones he use, and how he places them ? I know already about his gear, mostly vintage stuff and recording on tape.

Thank you very much.

I'm lost! I'm hoping someone can help me with this. I keep seeing the term X/Y Micing configuration but can't seem to find an explanation of it in the posts. I'm assuming it refers to the position of the mics relative to each other, or is it the position of the booms? I am Micing my cymbals with 2 overheads and close Micing the drums.

Hi All,

I am recording someone tomarrow for a project at my school. I was wondering if any one had any sugestions on acoustic guitar Micing techniques. the guitarist plays stuff like jeff buckley and heavy acoustic jazz. These are the mics I have available to me, I have two of each:

I have an SM57, SM58, and an MXL condenser mic. What can I do with these as far as drums go to record rock and roll?

I seem to be getting lots of noise when Micing my fender amp with a SM57. I am recording through a Tascam 4track(using it as a mixer), then to a computer. I think I ought to be able to shove that 57 right up against the amp. Any ideas what the problem is?

any tips..
I have a RODE NT3 sm 57,58..

Thanks alot

whats the best way to mic drums (toms, cymbals, bass, everything) and 12" speaker amplifiers(if it matters, it will be used for heavy rock recordings with some soft cleans). thanks

I am still very much a newbie with recording, so I will try to explain this the best I know how.

Come on, it's written "miking", no?

I'd only call it Micing when using the Blue Mouse.

:p
