I look forward to running the omni's that far apart some time...just need another stand
clamp
Problem is finding someone willing to run their mics that far off center to clamp onto either side.
I ran into this problem at a recent festy wanted to run split omni, but no extra stand - there was nobody setup 10' off center to one side to clamp to and run my stand the other side. Seems those that use one stand want to be closer to center. Hmmm.
Just makes for a smaller split (for me at least), clamp onto farthest right stand, and run your stand on the left the same amount. I had 3 to 3.5' split - worked nicely (not too many tapers out west, at least at this festy - baja bash, so cal). Work with what you got, but splitting mics I would recommend a clamp, as noted.
