Hello . . . just a query on recording piano . . . I will be recording some piano tracks this weekend. This will be my first attempt at recording piano, which I've heard is somewhat difficult to record.
I have a small but decent selection of mics, and will be interested in trying my Rode NT4. Has anyone had any experience recording an upright piano with an NT4? My other mics are: stereo pair of Studio Projects C1's; Rode NT2; Rode NTV; AKG C3000. I also have some lower-level tube mic pre's (ART / Presonus), and was wondering if those would be better than the mic pre's on my Mackie mixer? If anyone has any suggestions at all, I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks, and cheers!

Peter
 
I've used the Rode NT5's on an upright piano once and it came out pretty good.... and the NT4 and NT5's have the same exact capsules in them.
