GLM-100: Mini omni condenser mic. Flat response
from 20 Hz-20 kHz, accurate sound, 148 dB maxi-
mum SPL! Clips onto acoustic guitar, flute, horns,
sax, drums, fiddle, etc.
Suggested starting positions for the GLM-100:
Acoustic guitar: Tape the mic to the guitar body
about ½ inch from the low E string, midway be-
tween the sound hole and bridge.
Flute: Tape the mic about 1.5" above the flute, be-
tween the lip plate and tone holes.
Trumpet, trombone: Use the GLM-UM universal
mount supplied with the GLM-100. Clip the mic
about 4" out front, off-center of the horn.
Drums: Use the GLM-UM universal mount supplied
with the GLM-100. Clip the mic to the drummer's
right side of the snare drum rim, about 4 inches
above the rim. Put another mic in the kick. With
small kits, this single GLM can pick up the whole
drum kit. Boost the lows and highs a little.
Fiddle or violin:
• 1" above an f-hole, held by a GLM-UM Universal
Mount clipped to the tailpiece .
• Under the strings, near the bridge, clipped ¼" over
the body .
• Glue some foam onto the mic capsule flex relief.
Insert the mic and the foam through the hole in the
bridge. The GLM mic "floats" between the strings
and the top of the violin.
• For loudest sound and best isolation, place the
GLM inside an f-hole, with the cable wedged into
the narrow part of the f-hole. For cable strain relief,
trap the cable under a rubber band stretched around
the fiddle. This method needs some EQ to sound
natural; try cutting at 100 Hz and 3 kHz.
