Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Thanks everyone. I got all the footage loaded last night. Three solid angles and the GoPro with a few mistakes with how I framed it. Should be pretty cool... Just need to wait for the mix! :)

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

I'd love to write a detailed reply to everyone - thanks for your responses - but I have to get to work.

The shoot went well. The audio engineer knew everything that he was doing, and set up the...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Great tip, Jim. I'll definitely have at least one high angle - probably two - and a low angle (on a slider - I don't care if they can see up someone's nose - I want to show off that ceiling! :) Then...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Thanks Jim! Yeah, I quickly realised that audio equipment is a worthy investment, which is why the only lav mics I've owned are 11Ds and the only shotgun I've owned is a 416p. From my research, they...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Thanks Paul. I realised quite early in this thread that I was way out of my depth, which is slightly frustrating and exciting at the same time, as I really hoped that I'd be able to learn how to...

Thanks for the tips, Noa and Steve! Appreciate it! :)

Re: UDH Blu Ray Player is the future!

My main dislike of Blu Ray delivery is that we have a limited range of software to produce said Blu Ray.

I don't have Adobe Encore, and I'm not going to buy a monthly subscription from Adobe when...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Thanks Steve. I've never used a slate before, but I am sure it's as simple as it sounds when I've watched videos about it on YouTube.

My understanding is that you position the slate in front of...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

What about getting three of them, using a H6 to monitor all three in a left right and centre configuration?

Sounds like a plan! If this is better than the NT4 solution! :-)

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

That's a no! Wouldn't one work just as well in the proposed way???

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Hmmm OK! I was advised on the Sennheiser 8040 and 40-P48 though, and they look like good investments?

Cheers Steve!



Thankfully not. Their intent is to place themselves in a semi-circle,...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

I can get the Sennheiser MKH 8040 for £789... I could afford that.

The description for it sounds perfect for the use as well, with it being suited to less than optimal recordings.

The MKH40...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

True Noa... I just don't know if the mics I get I'll be able to use to their full potential, whereas if I buy a Rode NT4, I'll be able to use that for weddings too.



I'm sure that you're...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Makes sense.



Thanks. Is Thomann UK based though? As their website ends .de? I need the mic by Tuesday. *EDIT* 3-4 working days. I can find the NT4 in stock in other UK based stores though!...

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Thanks Jim. I was just wary that I have not done stereo before.

I'll look into renting. Thanks, but how much do you need to spend to get 'great'?

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Do you think a caridoid would work better? It was just a recommendation to use an omnidirectional microphone in this thread.

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo

Thanks Bruce.

As a final post, in the hope of getting a direct answer, can someone recommend a good omnidirectional microphone to purchase?

Re: Urgent Help: Advice Recording a Choir (16 Members) in a Cathedral 9 Second Echo
