In this seminar we had a real band come into the studio. I was playing the role of the Producer. This involved liaising with the artists and making sure everything runs smoothly. We recorded the acoustic drums, electric guitar, bass and vocals. Once again we used the same set ups as before; the bass guitar was miced up just like the electric guitar. The bass guitar amplifier did not have a line output therefore we could not connect it directly with the D.I. box. We started the session by setting up the microphones, and then we did a sound check.

After having recorded the instruments we recorded the vocals using a Neumann TLM 103 condenser microphone. The TLM 103 is ideal for recording vocals as it is a pressure gradient microphone and has a large diaphragm, where both sides are exposed to the sound. Therefore the microphone responds to the difference in pressure on both sides of the membrane. Being a condenser microphone, it also picked up the room acoustics too.
