[QUOTE="Dick Rees, post: 25432, member: 16"] Re: Micing a violin SDC on a boom stand. Tell the player to keep the bridge under the mic, the closer the better for live, a foot away for recording. My go-to mic for this is an AT Pro7a which friction fits between the D and the A strings just behind the bridge. The small gooseneck condensers also are great for an instrument mounted application, but with a real violin there is hardly ever a way to attach it. If you have a lavalier mic you can clip it to the strings behind the bridge. Mounting the mic frees the player to move a bit which is less stressful than having to maintain a fixed position for the boom mic. [/QUOTE]
