Grand piano:
Aim a single C414 or an XY, MS or ORTF pair of C414s at the middle strings from a height
of 5 to 7 ft. (1.5 to 2 m).
For a rock/pop sound, place two C414s roughly 8 to 16 in. (20 to 40 cm) above the
strings. Align mic 1 with the treble strings and mic 2 with the bass strings, both at a point
about 6 in. (15 cm) behind the dampers.
