Be aware! The AKG C-1000 has a 12db/8ve rolloff below 200hz. I found out the hard way, when they were the only mics on hand, and I couldn't place them any closer. If the acoustic and circumstances are conducive, omni sounds the best; flatter response, no proximity effect, nice ambiance if placed with care. The older C-451's had interchangable capsules, and could be used as omni's, the newer C-451's are fixed cardioid. How many voices? What is the room like? What, if any, other instruments will be present, and where will they be located? Too many variables to make suggestions. More information would be helpful. Best, David
