hello all.... has anyone on this site used condenser mic's onstage live, to mic up a nylon string flamenco or classical.....
i always see paco di lucia and vincento amigo and in fact most noted flamenco players always using only an external mic when playing live and only one......
any tips on what is the better mics...i know paco uses a DPA 4011 live..... but they really expensive....
any suggestions for cheaper mic's that deliver a similar result.....
i am totally clueless on this topic of mic's except for a few excursions into google....on this topic so what should i be looking for....
since i would like to experiment with this... i have a good sound with and undersaddle b band pick up and an internal condenser mic mixed ...but was thinking if paco and the big names don't use pickups or internal mic's maybe they onto something i'm missing out on....
also a good condenser mic in front of guitar will pick up some extra percussion and mandatory flamenco clapping without me having to mic up every thing separately as i do now.....
so maybe it will benefit me to go to an external mic....
so help???? and remember we talking live sound NOT studio sound.... so any mic's suggested must have a high feedback tollerance and possibly be directional ...but that i'm not sure of .....
peace and light
