Does anyone out there have hands on experience recording Trumpets and what mics work best for brass instruments?
Mic specs and advertisements mostly talk about recording guitars, drums, and other acoustic instruments. WHATS THE DEAL? I'm a trumpet player not a damn Guitar player!
I own two mics. one is a peavey dynamic (About the same as a shure 57) and the other is a Apex condenser, 1 inch Dia.
The Dynamic mic does a pretty good job playing directly into it, maybe 6 feet back, and the condenser is used to catch general overhead sound.
Any recommendations or comments out?
Thanks,
