Most of them used a clip-on mic for freedom of movement, that may not be necessary in a recording room. Btw, which sax ? Soprano, tenor, bari, C melody ? Different effects will be achieved by setting the mic in various locations, i.e. close to the player, directly in the bell, behind the player, above the player, et cetera. Players move the instrument a lot in performance, you might get the best effect from an ambient placement. My suggestion: Experiment. Others here will have more to say about mics, frequency response curves, and the proper clothing. Have fun. :) HTH, dp _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
