Default Re: Mic and tips for recording flute

Before suggesting any new mics, I'm going to suggest that you take every mic you have (this includes $10 radio shack mics) and set each one up where they sound best when the flute is playd. I'm not sure what mics you have, but after doing this short test get back to us about exactly what you don't like about the way each mic picks up the sound of the flute.

As for mic placement, I don't know exactly how a flute produces tone, but my aunt is a proffessional and has been in many big new york studios to produce her CDs. I'll be seeing her in about 2 days, so I can talk to her about it and get back to you.
