Which microphone(s) do you use with the cajon? I would love to know 😉 👇👇

@shaunsequeira3700 3 года назад

This sounds amazing Felipe!! I use the Shure Beta 91a, it works wonders! Just that one mic placed inside the cajon gives the bass and the snare! The Shure SM57 is a very versatile mic as well! But do make sure to try the Shure Beta 91a! PS: Love your videos! You're doing a great job! ☺️👍🏽

I use a Sennheiser e902 kick drum mic. Nice low end, but without the exaggerated bass boost and clickiness of other kick mics like akg d112, shure beta 52a, or audix d6, or even sennheiser e602. It's a little more expensive, though.

Both back and front mic's captured more depth. As I'm starting out with small gigs, I'll go with the back mic for deeper sounds. Until I can afford more.

Great video!if I have to choose only one microphone I'd go for the front,the only back is too thin and the snare doesn't come out.. The double micking sounds great tho

@CajonMaster 3 года назад

Thanks Dario for you comment. 2 mics sounds nice I agree with you. Sometimes when I play in a more echoing place, just 1 is enough but in a studio I need at least 2.

@@RichardVex depending on the size of the place 1 can be enough but 2 mics front and back do the job well and you'll have more sound options in the mix.

@chaddean9361 2 года назад

Hello Felipe, love the comparisons! Hey, maybe an idea for a future video or maybe you already have somewhere but I would love to hear your thoughts on mixing specific mics for recording and especially live setups. Most of the videos on RU-vid are for recording but I would love to see mixing tips to communicate to the sound guy when you play at a place that doesn't have a lot of experience with cajon. Thank you for the content!

@CajonMaster 2 года назад

Thanks for your message! This a great suggestion, I will see what I can do. In the meantime, don't hesitate to contact me if you need any help with live mic set up. You can send an email to felipe@cajonmaster.com, I will be happy to help ;) cheers!

@matthewbraman7202 2 года назад

Hi, Chad. I have some experience live and in studio. You will often encounter "kick drum" mics like akg d112, shure beta52a, audix d6, and sennheiser e602. They are designed to boost the very low frequencies and specific high frequencies for a "scooped" sound that's perfect for kick drums. But for cajon, those mics might need a mid boost and/or bass cut to sound good. That's why adding a 57 in front is so great. Then you can just blend the two mics to taste. I hope that helps. Great video, Felipe, thanks!

Hello, very interesting. Can you give me an equalisation suggestion using only one SM 57 on the back? The cuts to be made on the mixer in the various frequencies to have a nice low and precise sound and clean and clear highs? Thank you very much. 👍🏻

@CajonMaster Год назад

It depends the room you are playing it. If it's a small space 1 mic in back can be enough. The EQ will depend of the cajon model, the mixer you using and how echoing is the place, difficult to say precisely the eq parameters. What I suggest is to position the mic keep the channel flat and start testing the options.

If the capsules of a mic are facing opposite directions like this you need to reverse the phase of the rear mic, otherwise you get phase/polarity cancellation issues.

Hello Felipe. I want to ask, I am playing a Pearl Primero Cherry cajon with a rear bass woofer with a sm57 front mic like in the video and it sounds great, but I also have a t.bone dc1200 bass mic, if I put it next to the bass woofer, will the bass mic sound even better. Your opinion. With respect

@CajonMaster 5 месяцев назад

Hi! With the bass mic in the back it will sound great! It’s the way I do in most of my videos. Do the test and let me know 😉

@firemarioghost5208 3 года назад

Heya! Just wondering, what cajon did you use in this video? Also wanted to ask. I've been playing percussion for 9 1/2 years, and am just starting to play cajon. I'm borrowing one from a friend at the moment, but want to buy one for myself at some point in the near future. I am looking at the Tango line, and the Buleria line. I know they are different with the number of strings and such in the back and also in the Buleria line you can tune them. Is the price difference between the two a big difference for the quality? I know they're both artisan but still. Just looking at what is the best to buy for long term.

@CajonMaster 3 года назад

Hi! thanks for you message. The cajon you see in this video is the artisan Cantina line. The Tango is a great cajon for the price. The Buleria is superior in material and sound, and it also comes with ajustable string in the inside. Between these 2 I would go for the Buleria - geni.us/zKyHFo

@firemarioghost5208 3 года назад

@@CajonMaster Great to know! I'm hoping to purchase that sometime in the near future. I was also wondering if you could do a video on the Cajon Port from Kickport, and see if it makes any difference at all for the sound of a cajon.

Can you please give us more information about your setup? I understood, that you are using the two SM57 and the two C-2. You are not using any mic inside the cajon, right? Maybe you can share a video with the hole setup, including the mixer, the software and so on? And hey, your music and your videos inspired my buying a cajon ❤️ Edit: Just found another video from you, but there you are using the c3000 and the b52.. Have you changed the setup?

Yes, 4 mics, 2 57s and 2 overheads C-2. I almost never use a mic inside.

We have this EXACT MODEL: S57. Do you think is it better to record cajon near the hole or from the front of the cajon?

If you have only one 57 I would recommend in the back but always better if you have 2, in front plate and in the back hole ;) 😉

@jeanettepriest8275 3 года назад

I've been using a dynamic in the back. Didn't realize it picks up the bass sounds better than snare.

yes, if you are positioning in the back like I do in the video you'll have more bass. I suggest you to use 2 mics to have more options in EQ. Try it and let me know how it goes ;) thanks for your comment.
