Pocket recording studio

[Glenn Mitchell]

This was fun. Strapped my MBR to my old Shure with rubber bands and let 'er rip.

[Greeny]

That's it - that's all you need! Cool. So do you sit on the stairs to record?

[guitarron]

i've got to come up with a way to strap the mbr to a stand-i'm not using the built in mic unless i hold it-which can sometimes give  uneven levels

[Glenn Mitchell]

Yes, the stairs are one of my fav places to play in my house- for the sound of course. I move around a lot and this setup works great for that.
I bought the $5 sony and position it vertically as (almost) shown in the picture. It picks up the vox from the upper mic and the guitar from the lower side with a very natural separation yet with some bleed-over on the V trax.

I wrote up these instructions a couple years ago when I first got my Micro BR.

The short version:

A little velcro:


Some cheap bits from Home Depot:


Mic Stand Adaptor:

The long version is attached as a PDF file.

I considered rubber bands before I thought of velcro.

[Glenn Mitchell]

Yeah Velcro is the way to go, now that I know this is so useful.

Hey, those aliens that gave us Velcro - far out man......
