The C 562 BL is an excellent tool for getting uncolored recordings of acoustic instruments or a choir. Here are some examples: 1) Choir/brass section: Mount two C 562 BLs on a reflecting surface, about 3 to 5 feet (1 to 1.5 m) apart (A-B stereo technique). Place the choir or brass section about 7 to 10 feet (2 to 3 m) in front of the mics. 2) Acoustic guitar: Mount a single C 562 BL on a reflecting surface at the same height as the guitarist's seat. Place the mic about 1 to 1 1/2 feet (30 to 40 cm) from the guitar. Many engineers use this as a spot/ambience microphone in a main microphone setup. This technique works best in rooms with good acoustics.
