So far, very good!
Drums;
I have already recorded drums a few time and to be honest I have yet to get a bad sound. One of the takes the crash was a little loud on the left O/H but an adjustment on the mic fixed it. I am very happy with the sound of the room. I guess its a little dead but its easier to add than take away. So far I have used 4 mics only. 2 x NT5's overhead, Heil PR40 on bass drum and a 57 on snare. On all except one the 57 ended up muted.
Nylon acoustic guitar;
I have had 2 runs at this. The first was a Rode Classic2 on the bridge and an NT5 on the 12th fret. I got great results but I felt the Classic2 lacked some clarity, may have been the position. I also got too much click bleed so we decided to re-do it. The second run I used an AT4047 on the bridge and an NT2000 on the 12th fret. Very nice! super clear and full of body.
Steel acoustic guitar;
Used the same set up as the nylon with the 4047 and NT2000. No complaints, full and clear.
Bass guitar;
Tone tone tone! Early 70's P-Bass into an early 60's B-18 with a Jess Oliver speaker. I used the Heil PR40 about 2" off the grill in the center of the cone. The volume at about 6. Into my Summit limiter then to the API. Heavenly rich and thick!!
Rhodes;
Nothing serious here, I just wanted to hear how it sounded. I ran it to a Fender reverb 63 RI into my Vox AC/30. All I did was stick a SM58 in the middle of the the left speaker. It sounded great. I think I will try the Heil on it next time.
Scratch vocals;
The first on I did of myself in the CR with the Classic 2. What a great mic. Super clear and no added highs. The second was a client doing a scratch in the tracking room. I used the 4047. Sounded quite nice, again the room is almost dead. Next time I will roll up the floor mats ans see how that sounds.
So far I am very satisfied, Its so much nicer than what I had before.
