Re: Miking Congas

[jim palmer <jimp@pobox.com>]

warning: percussion is not my first instrument(s?)

i haven't used it a lot yet, but i like the audix d2,
the low profile keeps it out of the way and it sounds a bit
fuller than the 57.
i use three congas with a mike on each, lp claws for mounting.
i got the d2 free with my quinto.
haven't yet decided to get two more.

i saw an add for some sennheiser drum mikes that were very small,
with built in mounting claws.  looked pretty interesting, but haven't 
tried them...
