I find pictures to be very useful. You can write down the location of the mics and try and describe it but a photo really brings the recording location to life and helps a listener who wasn't present to better understand the location of the mics in the hall and, hopefully, better comprehend the sound of the tape.

you just used an awful lot of words to say "a picture is worth a thousand words" didn't you?

Damon - you know what, I almost wrote exactly that. diarrhea of the mouth!

Chris - hold your thumb up and imagine your fingernail is the diaphragm, hold it straight up. Now turn your thumb on it's side. See?

there is some dispute as to whether the housing of the mic might affect the way the sound waves reach the diaphragm when the mic is on it's side. Robert Kwon has some info on this.

if you get a regular stereo bar, put the shockmounts on with the screew dealie at a 90 degree angle.  then the mics sit vertically, but on a horizontal plane

like this:
x      x
x-----x
x      x

where the x's are the 2 bodies, and the -'s represent the stereo bar.  to run din/ortf, just adjust your shockmount/mic spacing and degrees accordingly.


i think phil has some pics of me and tim from phil and phriends running ortf/din.
