Microphone Placement - Posted on 2016-05-08 by CP Chris

This lesson was a little confusing when positioning a specific mic to a specific instrument.  When i went to the studio of my mentor's, Matt,  it all came to me.  He showed me how to position the mic based on preferences.  Such as a fat dynamic mic would be positioned to a kick drum or a bass at about 3-8 inches away.  It shouldn't be facing directly at it but more slightly around it.  I went to a live session where Matt positioned the mic to a drum set.  It was an awesome experience because one i havent seen anyone play drums that good and two it felt like the real world where people do buisness but at the same time in a playground.
