Hi guys, miss me? :wink:
So I hadn't done any recording in a while, but last night I recorded a talented young lady playing a concert of some difficult material. Hoping to build on my [="http://recording.org/ftopicp-252336.html#252336"]previous experiences[/], I took that approach and modified it per Spearritt's suggestions.
[="http://dmfrench2.iweb.bsu.edu/linked_files/ro_sonata6/VivaceExcerpt.mp3"]Excerpt from Vivace of Prokofiev's Piano Sonata No. 6[/]
I used a pair of R-122 in Blumlein 8' from the piano and 4' high and a pair of CMC62 in AB spaced 2.5' apart, 7' from the piano, and 7' high. In retrospect this may have been too close (you tell me), but I had no soundcheck this time, so oh well. The Royers were mixed in at about -4dB relative to the Schoeps.
I liked the tone I had on the last recording, aside from being a little bottom heavy, but it had no image definition. This one has more image and I think better tone, but I'm still not thrilled. Any suggestions for building on this next time?
