I'm thinking about running a 3-mic config at WSP Dallas using 1 TL (my other TL needs repair) and a pair of Pelusos (depending if Fozzy's stand can take the weight :D ). The plan is to run the TL in the middle of the other 2 mics, which will be ran in a DIN config more or less. The TL signal will be from a V2 fed mono into both RCA inputs on a UA5. I have wide-card, card & hyper caps for the pelusos and omni, fig-8, card, & hyper patterns on the TL. So there are a lot of options to choose from.
One way I'm considering is setting the TL on Fig-8 pointed straight ahead and then running the outer mics w/ either wide-card or cards almost 180° to the TL, sort of like an on-the-fly M/S set up w/ the Fig-8 mic used as the mid rather than the side mic.
Another option I could run is to use the TL in omni and then use hypers at around 130°. Or, run the TL hyper and the outer mics either card or wide-card. The acoustics of the venue are very good if I recall correctly. Any advice/caveats? thanks

I vote wide-card on the two oustide mics(run as wide as possible), and hyper for the TL in the middle.

thanks for the input. +t

I was thinking the one omni in the middle and split the wide cards. a hyper would focus in on the stage more but i think an omni would yield to a more ambient and real type sound. combiine that with the split sub cards and i think you would make a fine tape! this is all provide you are in the middle and have access to 2 other stands to clamp. so seeing as that could be a hard possibility your last suggestion would be what i would go with except lessen the angle and move em out wider, like NOS.
are you DFC? i think that's pretty crucial. Panic is definitely a stereo mix.

Should be pretty much in the middle but def. only 1 stand. Ya know, it might be possible to get by w/ only 2 stands split apart w/ the omni just mounted on one stand. If they're only split 20' apart & dfc I wonder how much a difference it would make... Cool, thanks for the thoughts. +t

no problem, backatcha....good luck!
