I am still not 100% happy with the recorded sound of my violin/viola etc. and even more with classical guitar (R88 showed the possible way ...but I play too quiet for it ...). Now I start working on the Mystical Violin II CD and I began with a search for ideal sound of these instruments ...
If I own a small private church next to my studio, it would sound much better I know. Anyway, seems there is nothing considerably better than Schoeps ... so the key is in the endless game of mic positioning ...
Whatever I tried before, it seems that nothing sounds better than one mic pair. The attempts to combine more than two mics never brought any good sounding results to me so far ...
Seems that R88 with Gordon (specially adjusted to 80 dB gain) could be a great tandem. Maybe after I finish Mystical Violin VI.
Anyway, back to music
