You are working on a production with a tap dance troupe that specializes in "hoofing" style tap dance. The group is carrying a hardwood tap floor. The floor is built in 5 4x8 sections that coffin lock together in to form a 20x8 floor. The sections themselves consist of a steel frame that is 4" tall. On top of the frame is a 4x8 sheet of 3/4" MDF with a 3/4" tongue and groove hardwood floor attached. There is 4" of air that is accessible between the bottom of the floor and the stage deck. The floor has rubber feet to isolate it from the stage floor.
The artist as asked that this floor be mic'ed. They also asked that a monitor wedges be placed both infront and behind the floor. They want both the band they play with and the mics from the floor to be sent to the monitors. You have been warned that last year they were not able to get the monitors loud enough for the artist without causing feedback.
Assuming you have a very large mic inventory and the boss had said you can buy whatever you want mic wise to do this show, what would you buy? Where/how would you place the mics?
