RE: "The direction of the blast..."

Sorry, I should have made myself more clear. Zipcord and David S. made me think of the difficulties involved in recording things like drumkits, which started me thinking about the difficulties involved in recording instruments like the French Horn using the "purist, minimally miked, audiophile" recording techniques that might make it easiest to detect polarity issues. Pierre Sprey of Mapleshade Records talks about the difficulties involved in recording the French Horn and piano in his CD entitled, "The Majesty of the Horn". Instruments like that one can be real bears to record because of the dispersion characteristics or the complex sum of their reflections, or so it is said.
