There are no hard and fast rules for pro-
fessional miking. There are many factors
that need to be considered to achieve the
desired sound. Therefore, a seasoned profes-
sional engineer may place totally different
microphones at totally different positions for
the same instrument depending on the play-
ing technique of each musician, the
acoustics of the recording environment, and
the desired sound. In selecting microphones,
it also makes a difference whether you will
use a mic for laying tracks in the studio,
miking instruments on stage, live broad-
casting, or in a conference room installation.
The best way to get the ultimate sound is to
experiment, listen, and let your ears make
the choice. Use the microphone that sounds
best. After a while, you will develop your own
standard miking techniques for optimum
results.
The table on the next page gives an overview
of which products have generally given good
results in which applications. Let this infor-
mation inspire you to develop your own ideas
and skill in using microphones. This catalog
is an overview of the entire line of AKG prod-
ucts.
