[QUOTE="Rob Timmerman, post: 3164, member: 172"] So I've been asked to help spec out a microphone setup for a local musician who plays, depending on the gig, fiddle or one of 2 sizes of Celtic harp. Due to various factors, an SDC on a stand isn't an option; the microphone or pickup will need to be mounted on the instrument(s). Budget is not unlimited, but the musician is willing to pay what's needed for a quality setup. Given the fiddle, my first reaction was to steer them towards a miniature omni condenser, perhaps with the DPA string mount and some putty to mount it to the harps as needed. Is this the right track, or are multiple instrument-specific pickups a better option? And any suggestions for which mic or pickups are worth looking at? Besides the DPA 4060? [/QUOTE]
