Hi BongoBoy,
thanks for your message. Well no, I haven´t been recording much myself because my multitracker broke down. My percussion group at school, though, played in concerts and we borrowed mics from the local theatre. We in fact have a good P.A system, and it was possible to gain a good conga sound, not too dry, not too much delay, just fine. We placed the mics ca. 60cm from the conga heads.
Musically speaking it wasn´t brilliant, ´cause they are 12-14 year-olds with no further background, but fun anyway. We made a CD, and if you want an mp3-file, I have to try to get a converter wav->mp3...
But recording is a tricky business, our janitor helped me.
Peace & drum
