Re: Recording choir and organ tricky position

Sorry i should have mentioned. This recording is for a 3rd year university project. Unfortunately one hour is the time i have and i guess im gunna have to make the best of a bad situation.

would M/S be a good idea if i have little time? i could then have a bit more control in post production.

I guess my biggest question really is where exactly to place my chosen technique. I know its impossible to really tell from my floor plan but any suggestions? would i need to place the microphones facing the centre of the choir? surly that would be really unbalanced with the organ pulling the whole mix to the right?

My lecturer suggested close micing the choir and placing a stereo pair of mics in the room to pick up the organ and choir but im not too keen on that idea.

Its a very beautiful sounding room i just hope i can do it justice.
