| Some odd one's to my experience with good results have been spot micing cymbals UNDER the cymbals and inverting the phase and alligning with the overheads.
Placing a microphone or two under a drummers stool.
A Beta 91 sitting on a bass cabinet.
A SM57 taped to another SM57 but backwards, mic the snare, invert the phase of one to stop hihat bleed.
Same trick but two SM57's together on a snare, delay the second and reduce the volume for a double snare hit. Nice for making a song unique.
SM57 on a bass cabs tweeter gives surprisingly good definition.
Basically lots of 57 tricks. |
