Microphone Use and Placement

Please note that micing techniques are a matter of personal preference. These are merely guidelines to assist in the placement of the microphone to gain optimal performance.

Usage	Optimal Placement
Overheads	Use two microphones in a 3:1 spacing position facing slightly away from each other.
Hi Hat	Place microphone 3-6 inches (7-15 cm) from and at a 45° angle to cymbal edges.
Acoustic Guitar	Place microphone 6-24 inches (15-60 cm) from and pointed towards body end of finger board.
Strings	For small string instruments, place microphone 1-3 feet (30-90cm) from and perpendicular to
	the soundboard, pointing at the strings and f holes. Use similar microphone positioning for
	larger string instruments, but 6-8 feet (1.8m - 2.5m) away.

Standard Placement & Use Guidelines

1. Always point the microphone at the desired source of sound, and away from any unwanted sources.

2.The microphone should be located close to the sound source to minimize interference from other potential sound sources.

3.Use the 3-to-1 rule when using multiple microphones. Place each microphone three times farther from other microphones as from the desired sound source.

4.Minimize over-handling of the microphone to reduce unwanted mechanical noise.

5.Working close to the microphone will increase the bass tone and also provide increased gain-before-feedback.
