Re: [Harp-L] mic amp survey

[Cljdm@xxxxxxx]

Hi everyone,
Thanks to all for the input. This response from Steve seems to verify  my 
instincts on this subject. In the interest of sound and mix an amp projects  
better to the audience through the PA. I started to think about this when I  
handed my mic to another harp player who sat in with our band. As I was  
listening in the audience I heard the harp was underneath the mix. I feel harp 
 is almost like a voice and should be out in front of the other instruments 
like  a singer. At least most of the time. The  amp through  PA  
accomplishes this "blending in the harp out in front". At least to my  ears.
 
thanks, Chris Mastakas

I always  mic my amp, the front sound is better and you can set the amp 
volume lower.  However, I mostly play in semi-acoustic settings and the overall 
volume level  is not that high.
