i have to do some cowbell and agogo bell overdubbs seperatly. how would you mic them and what type of mic would you use?

For the first, I'd use the best matched pair of small diaphagms I had (cowbell- much fast transients) X-Y, backed off a little, say 2'. For the second, I'd use a good dynamic, and treat it a lot like a snare. I might also put a dynamic at each end, and reverse phase on one channel. The bell is going to blow off very different frequency profiles in different directions.-Richie
