Re: Miking techniques on classical DVD-A discs

Because recording times for the musicians and the hall and the engineers can get exhorbitant, most companies employ multimiking. Even during the 'Golden Age' of stereo, most studios used multimiking, including RCA and Decca with their famous 'tree'. Mercury was one of the few to employ only three mikes. The three earliest RCA. LSC 1806, 1817, and 1893 used minimal miking (Zarathustra, Gaite Parisienne, and Daphnis and Chloe), but after these, RCA used up to seven mikes.
No compression is definitely not the same as minimal miking.
The only current minimal miking I know is done by Kavi Alexander, who uses a single stereo mike.
