These are my mics:
2 LRM-1 Ribbon Microphones
3 small condensers (2 octava) and 1 from Line Audio
1 Electrovoice RE11
1 Shure 433 Dynamic Omni
1 Line Audio condenser Omni
I need to record a family member's drum kit with these mics. Which would you use and where?
I am thinking:
RE11: kick
NHA SCD snare
2 Ribbons as overheads (though I am concerned about the figure-8 pattern).
I feel if I use the condensers on both overheads and snare it'll be too bright. Would miking the snare condenser closer make it darker and balance out the kit if I do decide to use condensers on overhead? The room is...a garage. Not ideal conditions. We're using blankets and such to deaden it.
Thank you
