Hi all,

For many of my field recordings I've been using a mid-side configuration, with a KM84 as mid and an MKH 30 as side.

With the mics in a stereo Rycote, it works very nicely when I'm recording something like Tibetan rituals outdoors.

But when I'm recording a Himalayan folk group with vocal soloist, the KM84 is just too literal and unsexy.
