Dear All,

I am a piano student. I am wondering what are the microphones in the $200-300 price range that would be suitable for piano recording.

Thank you!

I thought I'd share this remote recording story. Sorry no audio sound samples of this piano recording yet. I''ll have to clear it with the client. I'd appreciate reactions, comments or sharing of your own experiences in remote recording whether piano or other instruments.

Hey guys!

Today I attended a dress rehearsal for a cello and piano concert that will take place this Friday. I did some basic recon, and played with positions a bit. Here's a couple little smippets of what I came away with:

Hello,

I've been recording choirs for about a year now using a matched pair of Oktava mics (MK012) with some great results. The only problem is the signal is usually very quiet.

how should I record my upright piano? what kind of stereo effects can I use?

mics for use:
AKG 414
Bluebird
Groove Tubes GT44 matched pair
a couple 57s

The thread on recording solo piano got me thinking about the challenges of spot Micing piano on chamber music concerts. I record a lot of chamber music with piano. Generally, there are two to seven string players or wind musicians situated in front of the piano. And they all like to snuggle up to the piano and play right in front of it.

Hi,

I'm putting together a recording for a recorded audition for an orchestra.

I will be recording mainly trumpet, but also with piano in parts.

The venue is quite live in acoustic , but not as bad as a toilet!

I will be using Logic Pro 6 with a MOTU 828.

Currently I have a Yamaha motif 8, and i am looking to get a better recording out of it. Its ultimately going into a Delta 1010, but I have a question about preamps. Should I have it preamped before it hits the Delta? I was looking for a gain in the signal, but I am more concerned with a clean clean sound coming thru, especially when using different voices.

Hi,

Hello to all,
