Omni configs

(1/8) > >>

creekfreak:
What are some other ways to run omni's besides split? Are there other configs you can use that don't require you to spread them mant feet apart? ORTF? NOS?

jpschust:
with omnis the best way, imho, is to split them.  when you are pushing them in a direction you really dont get the direction because they are, well, omni directional :-)

creekfreak:
that's what I was thinking, with a pick up pattern like that angle, etc really means nothing. On to the next subject, what is a good bar to use to run split omni's, don't have time for the home made stuff...what works that is out there to buy?

teajay:
There was a discussion about this a few weeks ago (too lazy to find the thread) but here's the low-down....

Healy method. Two omnidirectional microphones placed 180* w/ capsules at about ear distance apart.

NO! That's not a stick man! It's a damn pair of microphones :D  omnidirectional ones at that (look at the 0's)

Good luck
Travis

creekfreak:
