RE: [Harp-L] micing amp
Chris Mastakas asked:
What would be the better mic for micing a four speaker amp through
a PA? A Shure SM 57 or a SM 58 ?
----
I'd try the SM58 first. Being more omni-directional, it''ll pick up
all four speakers better. Having said that, though, the SM58's
omni-directionality could also lead to more feedback... If you find
yourself feeding, you might want to (A) experiment with the amp
placement; (B) experiment with the mic placement; (C) experiment with
the amp's volume. If you still feed, go to the more directional
SM57. If you *still* feed, turn the amp down and the PA channel up.
And if you STILL feed, order a very tall beer. :)
