| While I'm at it (busy copying CDs), here's something from a recording of a symphonic wind orchestra in the Liederhalle in Stuttgart. Not quite as crazy, but it involved long steel ropes, looong mic cables, and long thin nylon strings to pull the stereo bar back a good bit. We tied them to balcony railings on the far side of the hall. Tested U87 vs. KM 131 here, in the end the 131s made it into the mix as main mics. |
