Instrument Adapters
Picking Up the Sound of Musical Instruments
... is best accomplished with a normal microphone such as a CMC amplifier with MK 4 capsule. This can be stand-mounted, or an Active Colette Tube can be used.
On stage, however, the risk of acoustic feedback may necessitate very close miking – perhaps by means of an adapter that attaches directly to the instrument. That approach may also be necessary in order to get consistent sound despite a player's physical motions. As far as the sound quality is concerned, it is always a compromise. However, SCHOEPS microphones do as much as possible to allow good sound quality to be obtained with this type of technique.
