| This is what I love about these forums:
People quickly skim the original post and then start spitting out answers that have nothing to do with the question at hand.
The guy asked which stand to use to get the mic inside the kick.
One guy starts spitting out other positions to set up the mic.
The next guy tells him what mic to use.
Neither one answered the question.
Here's what I have to say:
Use whatever stand makes it easiest to get the mic where you want it. I'm assuming the short stand doesn't have a boom, or else this question may never have been asked. If you can't get the mic where you want it with either of these stands, take the boom off of the taller stand and put it on the short one. Depending on how deep your going inside the kick, you may have to put something heavy on the base of the stand to keep it from tipping.
It really is that simple. When it comes to stands, there really is no wrong or right way, just so long as you end up getting the mic where you want it and keep it there. |
