"Mic placement depends on what kind of mic is being used, the sonic characteristics of the room (or outdoor space) where the banjo is being played, and what the actual banjo sound is. The latter depends on the player's touch as much as the type…"

"Thanks Russ. For me, that just results in distorted audio, unless the audio levels are extremely low. I was more thinking about which part of the banjo the mic should be pointed towards."

"That's fantastic!I find it's best to bring the mic up as close as possible, so it's just out of reach of your right hand."

"Thank you all.  @thereallyniceman it was your recording that prompted me to learn it!"

"One of my favourites. Excellent playing with much feeling. When I played it I just hammered thought it. Very nice indeed and a lovely tone."

"Well played, nice tone, it's a good tune that should be played more."

"Well done!"

"This is fantastic! And excellent quality. Thank you for doing it."
