4 Using the Microphone
a
The saxophone radiates all of its frequencies within the 3-dB band from the bell.
1. Place the microphone above the bell.
2. Point the microphone roughly at the middle of the instrument.
• If you want less key click noise, move the microphone further away from the in-
strument and/or aim it al the outer rim of the bell.
C 747 V11

1. Clamp the microphone on a cymbal
stand.
2. Experiment with microphone place-
ment to obtain the desired snare
drum sound.
b
Nylon and steel strung guitars are both
subtle instruments. The strings, wood,
lacquer, and playing style all affect the
tone and it's these delicate influences
that you should try to capture.
Refer to fig. 11:
• To make sure you get the full spec-
trum of the classical guitar's tone,
aim the microphone at a point near
the bridge. That is where the over-
tones determining the instrument's
specific timbre are at their loudest,
reinforced by the vibration of the top.
