AKG MicroMic III Serie Modo De Empleo página 25

The best way to capture the full range of the piano
is to use two microphones:
1. Clamp one microphone on the frame above the
bass strings.
2. Clamp the second microphone on the frame
strut in the octave above Middle C.
3. Align the two microphones so that all notes will
be reproduced at roughly the same level.
You can reduce mechanical noise from the
dampers by switching in the highpass filters on
both microphone channels. If your mixer provi-
des no highpass filters you can use the EQ
cautiously to roll off the low frequencies.
To clean the microphone case, use a soft cloth
moistened with water.
