hey just wondering but what is the mic stand used on 1:15 ? im looking for a nice mic stand thatll last me long and that is very long too. that looks like itll do the job well. fantastic video btw!!
I am a recorder player- not professional but I have need to record people playing recorders. Recorders come in many sizes from tiny to 9 feet tall. They are essentially sophisticated whistles with a window up at the top of the body column of holes, played vertically like the clarinet and oboe. Where would you place the mic?
Hey Glen! I mic recorders similarly to the flute (and I guess the bassoon) in this video. The goal is to try to get the majority of the sound from the window, but also avoiding some of the airiness by having it over the left hand. Since it is an "open" tube, there's no need to try to mic the bell portion like an oboe, clarinet, or saxophone. It'd get pretty funky with some of the bigger bass members, but the same principles apply, you just need to have a long enough arm. Good luck!
@@WoodwindFox Hey Ryan! Thanks for the tips. I'm getting fairly good results about 2 feet from the instruments. For the larger instruments I just stand up and that has been OK. Next up is the true art: turning these dry recordings into something lush and worth listening to.
@@GlenShannon Right?! Recorder EQ is so.... fun. My challenge is to actually have the recorder sound lush and worth listening in real life first lol Love your videos by the way!
Nice Video. Just seen this. What is your advice for the Native American Flute? I am currently using an ATM350a that I situate about an inch above the soundhole. Would it be better to put it near the tuning holes? I am running through a JBL Compact PA. It sounds good as I have it set up. With that setup I have, what would I need to record? Any info would be helpful.
Hi, if it were to record a live performance by a clarinet and a piano and you had only two condenser mics would you record in stereo the two players or record in mono individually? How important is the room reverberation on this conditions?
Sometimes you want that 'breathy' sound, makes it sound organic and real. Maybe my opinion is a little biased because I'm a shakuhachi player and the shakuhachi has quite a breathy, noisy timbre.
Hi there! Most of the sound from a didgeridoo comes from the end hole and a small diaphragm condenser microphone such as the AE5100 placed out in front of the hole would be one option. Thanks! - A-T USA
The Flute method is the standard, try this method and be sure to play around with distance. Great work!

Lucky Grandfather from Peter and the Wolf. Famous bassoon solo passage

Thank you very much.

Hi there! The best option would be to put a mic on a stand, near the instrument. Let us know if you have any other questions. :) Thank you! - A-T USA

2:15 Holy moley that guy must not be a real clarinet player! That is not how you hold the clarinet, unless you are in a Zatarain's commercial!
This video focuses on capturing the best sound from these instruments, not on analyzing posture or other details. I think he did an excellent job!

Thank you. I way prefer a large condenser mike for flutes, as if it where a human voice, placing it a little above the embouchure

I once bought a shakuhachi just for fun.
I find it extremely hard to play.
how you play the clarinet
There's a reason why the clarinet clip was very short...
@@fergal9808 haha you guys are killing me..
thank you guys so much, this is great
It's all very well presenting the usual suspects, but what about recorders? I can't find ANY information ANYWHERE on recording (soprano) recorder.....

my man adrian!!
Actually the physics of a flute and blowing across the whole of an empty bottle are completely different.
why are there no videos on recording clarinet with a player that can actually play the instrument lol
right
Yeah the clarinetists always suck in these in the video
He wasn't that bad lol
@@graysonwilson3343 yes, yes he was
lol... I thought a tad harsh but then I watched the video..
Uhh... sax is a woodwind too
But it's better, so it gets its own video. :)
No amount of correct mic placement makes my oboe sound anything but like a duckophone #honklife
she's playing clarinet?
Hi there! Tips for recording a clarinet begin at 1:56 and continues until 2:38. Thanks! - A-T USA
@@AudioTechnicaUSA oh, ok I think I see the clarinet now, or is that the uke?
DAMN who is that girl with the bassoon!
my man really out here playing telemann suite in a minor
im playing that right now!
gladiator I played it a couple of years ago lol
:D

@@AudioTechnicaUSA nice, thanks for your quick response ^^
