Other options I would consider would be to place a 414 directly infront of one side of the PA (aka stack tape) and continue to mic the violin as is.  However, use your own cables and run them off to the side, out of the way.  The other option I considered would be clamp you 414 onto the same stand as the shure mic, mic the violin as before, and again, run your own cables directly into the P1.

I have been taping live storytelling events, and am
not entirely happy with the results. I was hoping for
some advice from the community. 

The events usually take place in a small venue (i.e.
the room holds a couple of hundred people), with one
SM58 microphone for the storyteller, who is on stage.
There is a basic PA system, usually two speakers
mounted by the stage.

When the soundperson has allowed me to tape directly
from the board, the storyteller sounds great, but the
audience responses are very quiet, obviously. There is
also a violin player who sits on the side of the stage
to play warning sounds when the storyteller goes to
long. She is not miked and is barely audible through
the SM58.

So the last time I taped, I put a AKG C414 over the
shoulder of the violinist (cardiod mode), pointed
toward the audience. The SM58 ran through CH1 on the
house board, and the 414 ran through CH2. I recorded
the two tracks separately onto my DAP-1 (off the
board), with the thought that I could adjust the
levels independently later in ProTools.

The result was that the audience and violin were
audible through the 414, and the storyteller was
audible through the SM58. There was slight phase
difference, which (I think) I adjusted in ProTools.
Overall, the recording sounded better than it did when
just the SM58 was used. 

Intuitively, I feel like I am doing the wrong thing,
but I'm not sure why. If you had a DAP-1, 2 C414's, an
SM58, the house board, and maybe another mic (0f
unknown origin), at your disposal; how would you make
this recording? What would you do in post-production?
Gary Davis?

My apologies for the long email. Private/public
responses would be appreciated.

     Hello fellow tapers, thank you to all for the kind replies to my Dave Matthews taping concerns. I feel much better now. I plan on bringing in the Nagra IV-S reel to reel w/ DPA 4011's for this show.
     I still need to find a master to this Strawbs FM show in Dec. 1976 in NJ. I found a good 1st generation copy but would still do flips for a master copy of this show. Maybe a friend of a friend out there?? I will take care of you with some great live shows dating back 26 years. All master recordings.         http://home.comcast.net/~analog414/RicksRecordings.html
                  
Best Regards Rick

        Hi all. With The Dead gearing up for another tour, I was wanting to get a couple of the openers I saw last
year:

Wille Nelson 7/2/03 Maryland Heights, Mo
Bob Dylan 8/2/03 Joliet, Il.

        Obviously, Willie was open taping & Bob wasn't. I already have The Dead shows from these dates, so the
openers would be nice as well.

        Thanks.
