Title: Microphone Location/ Height Preference Poll
Post by: hippies on March 27, 2003, 07:05:35 PM

hey all,

please take a minute to give your choice as to the most important factor contributing to pulling the so called 'phat tape'.  we are talking a Line Array Sound System, an Engineer who knows his game.  any random situation you choose.  indoors, outdoors, small venue, large venue.  

we all know that many factors effect choices as to where and how high to run mics.  just looking for the factor you generally feel to be the most important overall.

thanks much!

even i know that there are too many factors and each time is different.  Thats why taping is a lot of fun...it's different everytime and gives you a little challenge to figure out what's gonna work the best...

Personaly at some venues I will give up a little bit of better sound to set up in a location where my rig is protected from the drunken masses
