[QUOTE="John Halliburton, post: 40567, member: 8"] Re: Bongos, mic techniques? The violin version is on the short list for strings too. Damn fine mic. I've done bongos/djembes/hand drums with 57's almost parallel to the head, aiming across at the hands. This to me, seems to pick up more of the hand work sound that I like to hear along with the actual drum tone. Adjust the distance to vary the sound, but just last weekend I had two hand drums mic'd right up close like this in the noisey pub room, providing sound for my buddies from NYC/Ireland, The Mickey Finns. Best regards, John [/QUOTE]
