Topic: Binaural set up- the practical side

[Rade]

Hi everyone and sorry for maybe a very basic question,

But I'm just wondering how do most of you place your mics when doing binaural recordings?
I know that they should be inside your ear, facing outwards.
Do you tape the actual mics onto headphone earpieces?
I've got a pair of DPA 4060s which I'll be using for my recordings.
Any photos or tips are more than welcome.
Thanks a bunch!

All the best,
Rade

I have mics that go in-ear (SP-TFB-2) and over ear, and (despite discussions about how the Pinna affects the sound) it makes no meaningful difference to the sound as far as I can tell.
