cheddatom Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 This came up on my facebook from Tape Op magazine and I was so impressed I thought I'd better share it here. It's a recording of a full band in a room using one stereo mic, and it sounds great. Not my kind of music but still, very impressive [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qcf6kqvsXu8[/media] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

discreet Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Fantastic. Just goes to show that you don't need a digital 48-track recorder and a 72-channel automated desk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubsonicSimpleton Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Thanks very much for sharing this clip, it inspired me to hook up the line out of my H2N for realtime monitoring purposes for the first time ever and triggered a lightbulb moment. I'd been researching the various LDCs and mic pres, but it never occured to me to try using everyone on cans with the H2N, rather than slapping it down with the gain adjusted to avoid clipping and hoping for the best (which to be fair produces pretty decent results). Gotta be worth the cost of a headphone splitter amp to see how much more finesse can be introduced on balance and stereo image placement with the H2N, room acoustics and musicianship is a different matter of course.

weepaul Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 I bought a wee Zoom H2 recorder off Ebay, small enough to throw in my gig bag. Heres a first attempt....... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lybM7h8YaNk And Willy (the guitarist) had only played the track twice before we stuck it down.
