    rep files
    Chris Huston 02/06/12 07:56 AM,
    As a complete oversimplification, a microphone is an instrument which measures differences in air pressure. It is not surprising that somebody would, in light of the interest in Quadraphonic sound, experiment and perfect an instrument which would measure and transduce the differences in air pressure around a full 360 degrees - to effectively create a quadraphonic microphone. Figure 1 (click to enlarge) Such a truly Quadraphonic device, developed by engineer Carl Countryman and producer Brad Miller, is in external appearance… View this story

  • In The Studio: The Attack Of The Lopsided Stereo Monster
    recording

Spaced pair seems reasonable (following the 3:1 Rule), but the mic pointed closest to the body becomes overly… View this story
