Hi
Sorry for the OT question, but I hope this list would provide me with
valuable input.
I'm using my sE usb2200A 48V microphone in my home studio, but now I'm
considering using it live for lead vocals. Is that gonna be problematic,
I'm (naturally) mostly worried about feedback?
We're using headphones for monitor, but the house PA might cause
problems. When recording vocals at home the singer is normally about 5
cm from the mic, was planing on the same approach live...
Oh, and would getting a reflexion
(http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/Reflexion/) make any difference?
Any ideas and especially experiences with using microphones like this in
a live setting are more than welcome.
I've used AudioTechnica AT2020 condenser mics very successfully several
times at live concerts for 700 people. Once for fairly close miking a
resophonic guitar with a small backing band (CW Stoneking and the
Primitive Horn Orchestra), and as drum overheads for Colin Hay Band.
As one poster mentioned the pickup pattern must be cardioid for best
feedback rejection in a live situation.
ps. There seems to be a big increase in traffic on this list lately.
Does this mean Linux audio is much more popular now? :)
