Members slvrsrpnt Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Was it in case one died? or having 2 microphones a little apart create a delay on the vox? [YOUTUBE]oLnii8pKs3A&NR[/YOUTUBE] you have to get past the intro (about 3 or 4 minutes, Rory does talk about the lovely sunburst on his strat if you have the time to sit through it.)

Members bdegrande Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 Often it was to cancel noise. The singer would sing into one, and the other would pick up the room sound/noise, which would be subtracted from the mic the singer was singing into.

Members jelloman Posted January 15, 2010 Members Share Posted January 15, 2010 They didn't have dedicated monitor boards until later in the '70s, around '76 or '77...one mic to FOH, one to the monitors... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The reason for two mics back then was, they didn't have splitter-snakes to send the signal to both the house PA and a recording console/deck. One went to the house, the other to the recording rig.
