placement
for the trumpet.
Refer to fig. 2.
The trumpet can put out sound pressure levels up to 130 dB. In
order to prevent overload distortion aim, the microphone at the
lower rim of the bell.
Optimum working distance is 12 to 20 inches.
On stage, you may have to move as close as
2 inches to the microphone in order to avoid getting feedback or
spillover from other instruments. In this situation, make sure not
to blow right into the microphone.
If you get too much blowing noise, use an extra windscreen,
e.g., the optional W 880 from AKG.
