From what I could find on google, it is an omni electret and unless you have two, you would be making a mono recording. I have never heard a recording made with this microphone, but I'd wager that it isn't going to sound fantastic. Of course I could be wrong and if you are low on funds and trying to make due, then I guess it wil have to work. By the way, the term bootleg isn't very popular around here - that term is usually used to describe illegal recordings for sale. I'm hoping you aren't trying to sell your recordings. +T
