Calvin, what part of the world are you in? You may well be better off going with a professional for this, for a couple of reasons: First, every hour you spend trying to figure out how to record your performance is an hour you didn't spend perfecting for your performance. Second, high quality microphones are really expensive to buy (a great sounding Neumann U47 can cost around $8K, and even the venerable RCA 44dx ribbons seem to have past the $4k mark) and a cheap one sounds cheap. Lastly, having a great sounding room and a knowledgeable engineer do make a difference.

If the audition is important to your future, a few hundred dollars might not be a bad investment...
