Recording backing vocals/choir

	Recording backing vocals/choir
	Some guidelines Variation 1: If enough tracks are available, we recommend recording each voice separately, one after the other, placing the microphone as for lead vocals. Variation 2: When simultaneously recording several voices with a separate microphone for each vocalist, use hypercardioids in order to prevent leakage, particularly if the microphones are spaced closely. Variation 3: When using a single microphone for several vocalists, set its polar pattern to omni or cardioid and place the choir in a wide semicircle around the microphone. On large mixed choirs, use a spot microphone for each voice. You may also consider using an additional stereo microphone. In acoustically perfect environments, a single stereo microphone or a matched pair of mono microphones (ideally, two AKG C 414 B-XL II) will often be enough to make a very good recording.
