SOUNDS GOOD

Used the two C1's last night as overheads for drums.

Large diaphragm condensors for overheads = sweet!

At 11:33 AM, Dave Cavalier said...: Cool. I guess acoustic guitar is essentially a percussive instrument as well.
At 11:34 AM, Jackson said...: Yes, Dave. Yes, Yes, Yes! Stereo pairs of C1's on everything!

It was sweet last night. I liked looking at them suspended above the kit.
At 12:14 PM, Chrispy said...: We should add that the second C1 was purchased as a Holiday gift for Jackson by none other than Tony Alva. A vey nice gift.

Large diaphragm mics are more forgiving, as they aren't as responsive as small diaphragms. There's a nice warmth to them on drums.

Now, between S&M and Grey Cat in Atlanta, we have 4 of these mics. Next up - quad.
