Hey slutz,
I have two gigs lined up to record this weekend, and I will be using a Metric Halo ULN-2 and 2882 to record.
I am renting most of the mics, so my choices were based mostly off of economic reasons. I am curious which mics you would plug into the low-noise pre's in the ULN-2.
Friday's gig (rock/funk/jazzy - small bar/club):
Keyboard - 1 sm57 + 1ksm27
Electric Guitar - 1 sm57
Drums - 2 M160's OH, 1 SM57 on snare, M88 on kick (outside hole in skin)
Guest Trombone - Senheiser MD441
Saturday's gig (soul, indian, jazz - very small performance room):
Harmonium - 1ksm27
Bansuri/Vocals - (split from sm58)
Trumpet - Senheiser MD441
Vocals 2 - (split from sm58)
Stand up bass - AKG D12E
Rhodes Piano - sm57 on cab
Drums - 2 M160's OH, 1 SM57 on snare, M88 on kick (outside hole in skin)
I am mainly curious about which instruments I should use the ULN-2 pre's for, but any other advice or critique would be great. (I am not sure if my lack of "room" condensor mics is a big mistake. ) Would the AKG D12E sound good in the bass drum for the first night's show (to get a heavier sound)? Also for the keyboard the first night, and the rhodes the second I am not sure to try and mic their amps or just get a splitter. I have a Fender Twin so I could reamp.....
A lot of questions, so many thanks for your help
