Any of you guys check out that Stevie Winwood vid that's been floating around facebook?
Guy's got a serious phalanx of microphones in it.

Hmm. That guitar sound is very in-your-face for such far away mics.. You'd need serious amounts of compression to get that sound from mics that are 3ft+ away.. And then you'd get a ton of room and voice in them.. Which this lacks all the phase issues you'd have in that situation.
As someone who's recorded a ton of folk singers with acoustic guitars, I've run into just about every guitar/voice issue there is when capturing a live performance..
I'd bet that they only used one mic out of the bunch, or they used the stereo spaced pair and that's it.

first thing i thought when he started to sing was "it's wiz " 8) Second thing was "i wish it was an HD file", third was "that guitar really projects", fourth was "that studio has a SUPER low, cricket free noise floor and perfect ambience", fifth was "those mics are amazing". check out 5:08, could this be the worlds most spectacular lip sync? (and it would be spectacular!!! indeed 8) Winwood is so friggin cool. |

I'm guessing he's doing stuff like this as sort of an infomercial for his studio, Wincraft.The studio space really looks sweet; gotta love a vaulted ceiling like that. Here's another one he did a couple of years ago of "Can't Find My Way Home" that was evidently shot in the lounge area. Check out the pop from the fireplace at 0:53 - really seems to work! Those mics almost look like they might be DIY 67s |
