Hi all. In my former thread I had some questions about off axis recording and I got some very seriour replies - thanks.
I'm experimenting with recording my classical guitar with my KM184's. I have tried to put a (homemade 29 cm) Jecklin disc in between the mics (they were 45 degrees spred and 25 cm apart) and the result came out surprisingly clear. The sound is more on-axis and therefore I doubt whether the image I get is somewhat "split" mono or "real" stereo. It sounds stereo in headphones, but the image is different than ORTF.
Is there something I should beware of? Is the Jecklin disc on cardiods too weird for a classical guitar on 80 cm distance?
If I trust my ears the sound is very nice, but I'm in doubt about the stereo image..
Kind regards
