Abstract

Radiation patterns affect the musical characteristics of any instrument. Applying the radiation characteristics of instruments to microphone technique will enable musicians, audio engineers and students to capture the most-desirable sound, and understand how to position microphones efficiently and appropriately. This paper will use the research done on several instruments’ acoustical characteristics and apply it to microphone techniques in a professional-level recording studio at Berklee College of Music. Audio examples will be used to demonstrate microphone placement according to the acoustical radiation of musical instruments. [Thank-you to K. Anthony Hoover for his support and encouragment with this paper.]
