Hi All,
I have been a huge fan of this forum for a while. I have learned a great deal from alot of the post here.
I would like some suggestions on mic choices for an upcoming jazz session I have. This is the gear I have to work with . I don't like borrowing other peoples gear. I am recording a Jazz quartet . Here is the instrumentation. I am going for a clean, organic sound.
Nylon String Guitar
Keyboard
Upright Bass
Drums
Vocals
Here is is whats in my mic locker-
(2) Sennheiser md421's
(1) Rode NT1a
(1) Rode Nt1a (mike jolly mod)

I know the mic choices aren't that great, but it's what I have to work with.
