[QUOTE="Tim Perry, post: 16806, member: 94"] Re: Suggest a mic mount for this grand piano Well, let me elaborate a bit. While I provide sound for this act on their outdoor shows, they prefer to go self contained to the small gigs. I merely want to provide a method that will maximize my enjoyment of their performance at no cost to them. I have had no contact with venue management but would not expect them to be conducive to any suggestion that might mar the appearance or value of their showpiece. Ordinarily, micing a grand isn't so difficult. I have a wide variety of condensers available... just not any so specialized as a C-ducer. In this instance the PA speakers and wedge monitor are placed under the piano, the lid cannot be raised (because of the centerpiece) and the crowd is against the piano all night. I have read and considered (and appreciate) all the posts. They have given me several lines of thought. I am considering, among options, the Countryman H-2, however I am unsure if it will overload with their mixpac. I have a variety of PZM's and PCC's but I need to strike a balance between functionality, aesthetics, and ease of deployment. Next show is friday. [/QUOTE]
