106. Orchestral Instruments

In Episode 106, James and Gary discuss orchestral instruments — with a wide variety of instruments comes a wide variety of different tones and challenges. Ways to incorporate them effectively into a mix include using certain microphones, spacing of sections and/or individual instruments, putting up barriers, and more. The Church Sound Podcast is sponsored by DiGiCo and Electro-Voice.
