Live recording technique???

[miltonhork]

Hi to all,

Presently we are recording using the line-outs from the mixer. It does a great job for the sermon but the recording mix of the Music is never going to match the live mix. Without going to the expense of a multi-track recorder etc. etc.,,,I would like to experiment with dual stereo mic's in the house.

1) Which Mic's? Cheaper the better, I'm thinking a pair of condensers. Maybe Dayton EMM-6's

2) Where to mount the Mic's? I'm thinking center rear wall with maybe a 24"x24" foam panel behind the mic's and a foam divider between the mic's to keep some stereo separation?

3) Would there be too much ambient noise or other problems?

Any suggestions of other ways to mic (record) live music?
