I just discovered that there were other options for figure-eight mics for M/S and have found very little opinions on the blue line stuff from AKG. For about $1300 you can have a …

Ok, here's a weird one. Say you only had two mics and didn't have any money at the moment to buy any more. One is a hypercard, the other is a cardioid. You want to record in ste …

I recently got myself a Zoom H2n which I'm using for general recording purposes. It has a build-in mid-side recording feature along with normal XY stereo recording. From what I can …
