Topic: ORTF with Hypers???

[Gizby]

Someone needs to start a thread on Stereophonic Zoom. I want to try it out, but I'd like some general feedback first.

All mics, angles and distances are legal, as long as you get pleasing results...

I have even used hypers with a Jecklin disc, it happened to have mic suspensions attached at the moment. Childrens choir in a slightly too revibrant studio. Worked fine, if not "by the book".  Angle was about 60 deg.

QFT

I've taken to labeling ORTF as 17cm@110º cardioid
DIN, labeled as 20cm@90º cardioid
DIN-A as 17cm@90º cardioid
XY as XY90º, XY100º etc.
wild ass guesses = 15"@50º cardioid, 12"@70º
baffled cards etc.


did I mention tht I used dual membrane LD's and a j-disc baffle with excellent, stunning results?
we were told that can't be done either.

Moke - what were you recording when you used "dual membrane LD's and a j-disc baffle"?  Were you running omnis or something else?

omnis

Why would the size ot the mic affect the diameter of the baffle? The baffle is supposed to represent the human head, yes? Baby mics, baby's head?
