Recording Concerts

One thing I would like to start doing is recording concerts for the radio. I think it would be cool to not just promote concerts in advance, but also to follow up on them.

Of course, this means asking artists for permission to record. This is a mite stressful for me. I thought one upcoming concert would be great for that. I asked the band. They said yes. I was happy. However, I have now discovered that they are on a double bill and it is a festival benefit. So now I have two other groups to ask regarding this one event. Phew.

Anyway (for any audio geeks) my plan is to record using a Studio Projects LSD2. It’s a stereo microphone (2 mics in one box) and looks pretty groovy. Plus, I have been saving my Christmas and birthday money, as well as my SlimBatteryMonitor donations and DateTree license fees for a project like this. That means that I can almost afford this mic. (Particularly since everyone seems to sell it far below the manufacturer’s suggested price.)

I’ll be renting a mic stand and a preamp if this concert goes ahead. Those will have to wait for later purchase.

I really hope everyone says yes…
