Crown SASS Application Manual page 11

• For maximum isolation and gain-before-feedback,
use a GLM-100 close to the drum head a few inches
in from the rim.
• Place a CM-700 12 inches from the drum head for
recording, closer for sound reinforcement.
Violin
Recording:
• Place a CM-700 or CM-150 1 to 2 feet away over the
top.
• Attach a GLM-UM Universal Mount to the tailpiece
and place a GLM-100 over an f-hole. Experiment
with miking distance to get a good compromise
between tone quality and isolation.
Reinforcement:
• For more gain-before-feedback, put the GLM inside
the violin through the f-hole or clip it to the bridge.
Mandolin, Bouzouki, or Dobra
Recording/Reinforcement:
• Place a CM-700 12 inches away for recording, closer
for sound reinforcement.
• Mount a GLM-100 on the sound board near
an f-hole.
Acoustic Bass
Recording/Reinforcement:
• For a natural sound, place a GLM-100 or CM-700
on a boom a few inches out front, above the bridge.
• Tape a GLM-100 cable to the bridge.
• For a full, deep tone, tape a GLM-100 near an f-hole.
• For isolation, place a CM-200A near the f-hole and
roll off excess bass.
Brass
Recording/Reinforcement:
• Place a CM-700 or CM-200A a few feet out front.
Mic on-axis to the bell for a bright, edgy tone; mic
off-axis to the bell for a mellower tone (Figure 13).
• Attach a GLM-UM Universal Mount to the bell, and
position a GLM-100 about 4" from the bell, off-
center.
Woodwinds
Recording/Reinforcement:
• Attach a GLM-UM Universal Mount to the bell, and
position a GLM-100 or GLM-200 to pick up both
the bell and the tone holes.
• Place a CM-700 about 12 inches from the tone holes.
Flute
Recording/Reinforcement:
• Place a CM-700 halfway between the mouthpiece
and the tone holes about 6 inches away.
• For recording or low-level sound reinforcement, use
tape, a rubber band, or a padded broom holder to
mount a GLM-100 on the flute. Attach the GLM
cable 4 inches to the left of the lip plate (looking at
the player), with the mic capsule 1
the flute (see figure 14).
• For extra gain-before-feedback, tape the cable to the
end of the flute nearest the lip plate, so that the mic
can "see" the lips. Roll off the excess highs on your
mixer.
Dulcimer
Recording/Reinforcement:
• Tape a GLM-100 on the center of the top edge,
inch above it.
• Place a CM-700 about 8 inches above and in front of
the center of the top edge.
Harmonica
Recording/Reinforcement:
• Place a CM-200A a few inches to 1 foot away. Hand
hold the mic for sound reinforcement. For a bluesy,
dirty sound, pick up the harmonica with a mic
plugged into a guitar amp, and mike the amp.
Harp
Recording:
• Aim a CM-700, CM-150, or GLM at the sound board
about 18 inches away.
• Tape a GLM-100 to the sound board.
