If you're using MK21 capsules, I wouldn't go ORTF, rather I'd take the capsules wider- try 14" or so on a long stereo bar. Should be in pretty good shape.

For classical, do NOT ever put a mic on the instrument... Just isn't going to sound good. Rather, a mic pair with a good low-end that isn't tuby is the way to go.

May be a bit ghetto, but I've used iTunes with great success for this. The initial setup is a lot of work bringing in titles, artists, etc... but all the music library is in it is a big database.

Go 4 across on the orchestra using omnis or subcardiods. Low profile stands- DPA Grand Flamingo, Schoeps Colette, etc... will all work. Hang DPA 4061 mics around... There are lots of things I've do ...

If you were using the same mics, one could build a central HV+heater supply. This would be a practical and elegant solution. Clean on stage or in the cloud, easy set-up and low hump factor.

Used to record one of the local orchestra here in town with all tube mics. We placed a universal power supply at the edge of the stage and ran the cables to each mic from there. Some of the runs app ...

I absolutely LOVE the new Sennheiser 8040 mics. No other way to describe it. I barely use my Schoeps MK4 mics as an ORTF pair anymore. For soloists, the 8040 shines. Between the small size and the ...

I generally avoid threads like this one, but I just purchased a pair of mics that must go on the list...

I purchased a set of the new Sennheiser MKH 8040 microphones and I'm very impressed. Defini ...

There are lots of inexpensive products out there- some are better than others. The best stuff I've seen out there are Cedar and Audiocube. You'll pay more for these, though, than a lot of cars cost. ...

I get some of those photgrapher issues on a pretty regular basis. My favorite is a client of mine where the photographer sets up in the center aisle right under the main pair. He uses a digital SLR ...

The Shure A53 donut shockmount is a snug fit, but it does work relatively well. Also gives you a shockmount for a fraction of the price.

Jim does great work, but you should call him to see if he'll do the new XLII mics. There is a ton of surface mount stuff in there that is going to be tough to work around.

I've heard what he doe ...

As much as I love working with Mogami, it really doesn't do well around bad electrical fields. Because of that I've gone with Canare Star Quad in the field for much of what I do. I've just had too m ...

Not a fan of MKH40's on percussion here. There is something about them that is just too polite. Seems that the attack of the instruments just gets a bit lost with them...

I missed the fact that ...
