Brass Instruments In Baroque Orchestra

I use these in an ORTF stereo setup to record a baroque orchestra and chorus. Medium sized church. Apogee Element interface with Logic Pro. These are extremely quiet. Very natural sounding microphones. No muss, no fuss. You can do worse. You can't do much better. No matter how much money you spend.

When the brass, woodwind and large percussion orchestra filled the 600 seat auditorium with raucous music for Honegger's King David, the speaking parts within our 100 member community chorus didn't stand a chance of being heard. All our funds had been spent on orchestra and soloists. But the hall had a sound system, and I had a guiet old field mixer. I also had experience with a predecessor of the OLM-10. I took a chance and ordered six. For less than $150, they delivered excellent sound from voices among the singers. The omnidirectional pattern made for evenness with untrained performers. Their self-powering and 20' cords made hook-up very easy. Congratulations Pearstone!

This is a work horse mic used by every sound engineer to record any type of instruments:brass, percussion, etc.

I use this mic to record string and wind (brass mostly) instruments.  The different patterns make it effective in a variety of spaces depending on whether you want to reject other sounds or include reflections.  Versatile and great sound quality.

If you're at all interested in The Orchestra just get it when it goes on sale. It's awesome.

If you work in the orchestra field, these reverbs are mandatory.

I have extremely sensitive skin and camera straps make me miserable, so I went looking for one that might help. The Rose Baroque 1.5 strap was better than perfect. Being slim in width, it fit my next perfectly, and the underside is padded and luxuriously soft. It's also well made and will last a long time. Another plus: It matches my camera bag color exactly! I have been surprised at how many female photographers notice the strap and want to try it on. One of the best purchases I have ever made.

Needed to support 3 baroque recorders in concert, standing in front of a choral music stand. Had to keep it light for air travel and multi-venue performances. Found a nice plastic black tray, topped it with black egg crate sound foam, punched a hole in the tray for the MY550 knob, and cut a slit in the side of the tray so the MY550 slides inside and bolts on tight. Easy assembly at venue, disassembly for packing with instruments. 5 stars.
