For the recordings of my band's next demo we're able to use 4 microphones. For snare it'll be a Shure SM58 (or Sennheiser E835); for kick an AKG D112.
But at the choice of the 3rd and 4th mic is where our problem appears: I would like to get the cymbals to sound very high, airy and bright, whereas I want my toms to sound very low.. Should I setup 2 overheads, or should I mic the the tom & floor seperately and let the cymbals be captured by the other mics?
What mics would be appropriate for 3rd and 4th mic? The mics we can choose from: AKG C414, AKG C1000, AKG C451E, AKG C452EB and Beyer M10.
Guys, I trust on your knowledge! Thanx!
