| For the kind of recording you are talking about, I'd probably go with a slightly different approach- there are several that can work well, it is just a matter of deciding what sound works best for you ... |

| Since we are talking phase, I'll also put in a plug for the radial variable phase box. It is pretty amazing what it can do for a mix. Little Labs also has a similar box that is available as a plugin ... |

I don't lug the HD systems... I rent and it gets delivered. I guess that is one of the advantages of living in LA.
Yes, Don was pretty much my "go to" guy when he was out here in LA. I also had h ... |

This may be heresy amongst the loyal Sequoia users, but I find that my Pro Tools LE systems on Macs are among my most stable DAWs. Using Pro Convert helps get 7.x sessions into Sequoia easily.

Don't remember the shortcut, but there is a command for it in the region menu. Look for edit consolidation.
As for Sequoia, when you open the files, just open to their timestamped position. It is ... |

| Are you sending to a DAW that cannot support BWF format? An edit consolidation will creat BWF files that you import into the timestamped position in any DAW. |

Look in your track bounce options.
I have not had to bounce stuff in PT 8, but in the older versions, what you wanted ended up being a multiple bounce situation. When doing stems for film, I'd hav ... |

Most of those "phase cancellation" laws are BS in my opinion. Use your ears and place the mics where they sound good. Those "rules" are most applicable with close mic situations.

I'll add one thing to David's comprehensive post... Sequoia also has the most advanced tools for Post Production as well.
For example, better video support, more surround options (Samp is only 5.1 ... |

If you're using MK21 capsules, I wouldn't go ORTF, rather I'd take the capsules wider- try 14" or so on a long stereo bar. Should be in pretty good shape.
