i am in complete agreement with channel assignments discussed above (right/top/2, left/bottom/1) and apparently was too green to figure out the diagrams on the s42...
however, in rereading this thread (i was looking at the pattern diagram earlier), i am still confused how to orient the positive on the fig8 and which cap should be which pattern. i always thought the positive face of the fig 8 cap was supposed to face left. but that doesnt work like it should with the c422. then nick says in this thread that it should be right, and that all software expects it that way (which would work with the c422 like it seems it should). but this seems to work with c422 only if the top is the fig 8 and the bottom is the card. i always thought the top should be the mid, and the bottom should be the side. so which is it..? does it really matter..? or am i not seeing it correctly, and/or not rotating the c422 properly..?
btw, this is why i have never really run the mic m/s all these years. it is also probably why the few recordings i have made running m/s have sucked balls...
