Unless I'm missing summat (or several summats)...?? ??? OK, I'll get me coat then..... :-) |

(Amazing though, how *fresh* this recorded *real sound* is, when compared with commercial stuff, ain't it?) Well, this was more about the mic than the recording, and I thought I'd present it "warts and all". I know (as you know) Sqiddly Dick about this lark, but what about 'reflexion shields' in this sort of situation: http://www.seelectronics.com/rf.html They might help a bit, but they're really for taking the fine edges off rather than taming a really lively space like this one. The point of the space is that it was where they were performing later, and I came in for the rehearsal. Better yet (again, I know absolutely *SD* about it..???) what about *ribbons* and 'reflexion filters' in this sort of situation? :-)) Ribbons have their uses - but this ain't one of 'em. They have a full-size pickup facing backwards, and they would have been emphasizing reverb from way back down the nave - I promise it would have sounded much echo-ier. Also, while my knob is out for an easy target, why does this type of recording have to be *stereo*...?? Unless I'm missing summat (or several summats)...?? In a highly reverberant space like this, recording in stereo gives the ear a chance to put the reverb in its proper perspective. Doing this in mono would have left it muddled. If you want a flavour of how this works, try and follow a conversation in a noisy room with a finger in one ear - really hard. ??? OK, I'll get me coat then..... :-) Check Please!

OK. if I go ahead with the ribbon mic I mentioned, I'll probably knock summat up (hardboard and 'lambswool' springs immediately to mind) and I'll do some 'with/without' comparisons.... The point of the space is that it was where they were performing later, and I came in for the rehearsal. Yep. Not a lot you can do about that! Better yet (again, I know absolutely *SD* about it..???) what about *ribbons* and 'reflexion filters' in this sort of situation? :-)) Ribbons have their uses - but this ain't one of 'em. They have a full-size pickup facing backwards, and they would have been emphasizing reverb from way back down the nave - I promise it would have sounded much echo-ier. OK. But I was wondering if a 'reflexion filter' would kill the rear field sufficiently...?? (An experiment waiting to be tried, for me....??)

If you want a flavour of how this works, try and follow a conversation in a noisy room with a finger in one ear - really hard. Ok, I'm not sure I would go along with that - mono replay seems (to me) to need both ears to 'centre' it and for it to sound natural...?? It's just I do query stereo when it appears to create 20' wide pianos..?? (Like I'm doing atm...??? ;-) |
