I've got a couple of C1000s that I use for overheads, For recording I'm pretty much 'internet taught' so I'm always looking for new ideas. From the picture hopefully you can see my mic placement. On mixdown I hard pan left and right. It sounds ok but I'd really like a little more stereo seperation. Would using a mic bar and x-y ing the mics close together right above the kit be any better? It really sucks being the drummer and the engineer, I can never try anything out from the control room! I need to find myself a drumming volunteer...
