[QUOTE="Ivan Beaver, post: 76254, member: 30"] Re: How to mic an Oboe and Clarinet Back when I played oboe (yes for real) I didn't need no stinkin' mic. I just played out! In high school I was known as the "rock and roll oboe player". Oboe and electric guitar-why not? What is a burning oboe good for? Lighting a bassoon on fire. How many oboe players does it take to change a light bulb? Just one-but he has to go through 20 to find just the right one. How do you get 2 oboe players to play in tune? Shoot one of them. But seriously- my dad (who was also an oboe player and music professor) once did a performance with 100 oboe and bassoon players-no other instruments. Interesting------------------------------------------------ What were oboe and bassoons first used as? Instruments of war-the sound would scare the enemy. It still does to most people. Yes I still have 2 oboes-a late 1800's and a modern. 57's work for me-but a nice condenser is preferred. It all depends on what is available. Now back to your regular programming--------------------- [/QUOTE]
