Microphone recommendations — esp for wireless clip on mic

[Aaron Jonah Lewis]

I’m performing next month with a full orchestra and will need to mic my 1928 Weaver, preferably with a wireless clip on mic. Does anyone have experience with such things? I would very much appreciate hearing your experience and any recommendations or suggestions.

When Bill Evans, Scott Nygaard and I did the same with the San Francisco Symphony their sound tech used lavalier mic-s as they would with a vocalist singing with the orchestra. They clipped on to our clothing and worked perfectly. Perhaps your orchestra has one of these.

Thanks Jody, That's a great idea. I will check on that.
