| I think you want an M-S set up for this - that way you can point the null of the cardioid and the figure-8 at the stage and get some isolation. -tINY |

| what's your budget? there really are a variety of options at almost every price level... You've got money coming out of your ears - Neumann SM 69, schoeps MSTC 64 U You've got more money than me - AKG c34, 422, 426 You need to pay your rent and buy a mic - Studio Projects LSD2, rode nt4 Your flat broke - Audio technica at822 or at825 also any decent pair of SDC can be used in a variety of stereo configs to achieve decent results. |

| We use shotguns on stage pointing out. They don't have to be expensive when they're just recording a bunch of drunken idiots hooting and clapping, right?

| my #1 stereo mic for broadcast and recording, as well as in ear monitors- a Shure VP88. I LOVE this mic. I have used this on just about every aplication. When I do live recording, from the FOH area on tours, I use it as well. Actually get good results. And I'mnot only saying this as a Shure Endorsee.... Had VP88's before i got the deal. Tim |

| A buddy of mine showed me the Studio projects LSD2 yesterday. Big, heavy honkin' thing, but I have to admit, it was cleverly engineered and seemed well made. He claimed it sounded good. IMO, it would make a good "audience" mic, especially in Blumlein. ~~~~Mark S. Pretty Good Recordings |

| Both the VP88 and the LSD2 will do the job. Both are too noisy for low volume stuff. Just my experience ![]()

| agreed on the VP88. i've used it to record tone/atmosphere at shows and it mixed in great with the stage mics. Rode's NT4 and NT5 (condenser pair) are also good, affordable options. i was pleasantly surprised hearing the NT5 - i think it's only $350? not bad at all. but of course, two cables required, which is less convenient. |

| The Royer SF-12/SF-24 or AEA R-88 works very well for audience pickup. Yes, it seems like "overkill" to have this expensive of a mic for that use, but a stereo ribbon handles the high-frequency transients of applause SO MUCH better than a condenser. It just sounds like applause instead of "popping." You'll find the ambient music pickup from the mic may be useful as well.
