Miking Techniques
Tuba
The frequency range of the tuba is 29 Hz to harmonics around
2000 Hz. Frequencies around 75 Hz project evenly from the
bell, with higher frequencies becoming slightly more directional.
Usually, tubas are not miked individually from the orchestras.
However, if a more direct tuba sound is required, a cardioid
mic angled slightly off center of the bell at a distance
of 2 feet or more is usually the ticket. Also, bass drum
or bass instrument mics can yield good results if a closer
miking is required.
