Hi Nathan,<br>
<br>
You did not say if this was for recording/broadcast or live sound
reinforcement. Big difference between them. <br>
Also if this is going to be live, the type of room/venue it will be
held at influences the choices also.<br>
<br>
The choice and placement will be easier to advise when these are
know.<br>

<div style="font-size:12.8px">I was recently asked to mic a
board meeting at my college, and having never done this, I'm
at a slight loss on how to go about it. The setup is usually
tables set in a U shape with close to 3 people around the
outside. The organizer wants to have everyone micd, but I
don't have the equipment or board capacity to mic each
individual. I was thinking of putting either SM58s (I have a
bunch) between pairs of people, but I think the table top
stands might look a little tacky, plus space is limited by
binders or materials, lunch, etc. My other thought is to use
some boundary mics, but I've never really worked with these,
so any recommendations on quantity and placement would be most
helpful. I'm looking at something like this:</div>

</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px"><br>
</div>
<div style="font-size:12.8px">Should it be cardoid or
omnidirectional? Either way, I'd have to purchase the boundary
mics. Any help would be appreciated.</div>
