I used to have a mismatched pair and I always wrote down which was which, by serial#,  when I made notes about the recording. That has stuck with me.

Ideally, you would make one set of everything  (one mic, cable, interconnect....) to designate a certain channel to be used on...so mark one of everything w/ a red indicator (tape, ink, polish...).
That way you will always have the same match up of gear and if you have any trouble w/ one channel, you will know which chain of cable and mics to investigate. Or you can "match up" a hot side of mic/cables to a non hot side of the pre hoping to even thing out IYKWIM  :)

As for L and R of the mic.....the right Capsule points to the Right and L>L no matter where the xlr end ends up.


has anyone ever noticed when the mic designation is reversed????
