I should post this in the keys forum but this one gets more attention
I have a baby grand & there's a good chance I'll have to mic it live........there will be no other instruments except the player's voice for 90% of the time
I'll also be recording the show live & having never mic'd up a piano before I could do with some help
I have a pair of AKG C1000 SDCs, behringer C-2 matched SDCs, 2xSE2200a LDCs & can get access to a pair of neuman TLM103 LDCs (the player always uses an EV N-dyme for vocals so that's written in stone)
I'm leaning towards the C1000s for focus in a tight X setup but I don't have clue where to put the mics (there's a lot of space even on a baby grand) & I don't have the time to experiment a great deal so any advice & tips would be greatly appreciated
Thanx
