Hi Everyone,
I've been doing a little bit of recording at my house, and I wanted to ask a few general questions about mic selection for certain instruments....what I currently have are 3 SM-57s, a Shure KSM32, and a Nady SCM900. The instruments I'd like info on (mainly because I haven't had the chance to really experiment with them) are:
Trumpet
Alto Sax
Cello
Recorder
Flute
tambourine (actually, I should clarify by saying that I would like to mic the skin of the tambourine itself)
floor tom (with the intention of devising a sort of poor man's tympani sound)
dreadnought acoustic and nylon-string classical guitars
Any advice would be appreciated (and thanks in advance)
