I just did an album with the accordionist playing a full sized Weltmeister; we miked it on the keyboard side about 18" away with a U67 through a Phoenix DRS-2 and a Vac Rac compressor. A nice sound, but we had some issues with the mechanical click of the keys. It's the nature of the instrument, though, so after discussing it with the player, we simply got over it...
