With what you have, I would try the follwing set up. Royers on the trumpets,and since you have only two I would put one on the so called lead trumpet and split the others on one. You didn't say how many Km184's you had,but if you have three I would put one on each bone. Try to keep the mics about a 1 to 1 1/2 ft. from the bell of the horns. Horn players in my experience have a tendency to want to eat the mics. Make sure when you place the mics that they don't inch forward. Use the B&K's for room. That's just my 2 cents worth. Good luck on your session.
