Tri-annual gear photo of the Peninsula Youth Orchestra location recording setup - all equipment owned by Robin Wienands. 11 channels of mic preamps pictured in the front 2 racks... 4x @toneluxaudio MP5A, 4x SSL9000 built by Robin himself, 2x @hairballaudio Element Gold and lastly 1x Prodigy Engineering Bella. A @tascampro DV-RA1000 serves as a real-time backup to the pro tools system - and this is only half the setup 👌😎 Please reach out to Robin or myself for any location recording needs... we’ve got the orchestra recording sound down pat and we travel 😉 • • #recording #orchestra #theatre #music #locationrecording #orchestradirector #highschool #youthprchestra #recordingengineer #pyo #peninsulayouthorchestra #bayarea #sanfrancisco #monterey #california #losangeles (at Carlmont Performing Arts Center)

Robin and I are using his new Neumann TLM 102 Condenser Mic for the Peninsula Youth Orchestra performance this weekend - handling center woodwind duties 👌 I’m still getting a feel for it’s sound but right off the bat I can tell it has a flat, smooth and pleasant tone. It also has a tight cardioid polar pattern capture allowing it to focus on the woodwind section without picking up too much of the stringed instruments and percussion. I’m judging this by comparing it to an AKG 414 b-uls in cardioid which I work with regularly. Great mic which I’m sure we’ll be using often 👏🎙 @neumann.berlin • • #microphone #neumann #tlm102 #orchestra #woodwind #strings #percussion #peninsulayouthorchestra #pyo #recording #locationrecording #bayarea #sanfrancisco #recordingengineer #review #performance #tone #vibe #cardioid #polarpattern (at Carlmont Performing Arts Center)

Too bad I couldn't focus correctly, but there was an intense spiderweb between the cable and mic after being left up only overnight. I had to move the mic though... Sorry mr. Spider #orchestra #recording #peninsulayouthorchestra
