Many churches struggle with piano sound problems in their sound reinforcement systems and television broadcasts. Churches typically mike their pianos by one of the three methods: single mic over the edge of the piano, two mics higher up, or a mic inside the piano on a pad.
In most cases, none of these microphone placements will provide the desired amount of sound level (gain) before acoustic feedback. In addition, the piano lid will not close, allowing the piano microphones to pick up the sounds of other surrounding instruments. Not to mention the unsightly appearance of microphone stands or booms sitting in front of the piano.
Franklin Denham, minister of music at Highland Baptist Church in Meridian, Mississippi, said he has found the solution to all of these problems by using the new Earthworks PianoMic™ System.
