Hello Frank,It is possible that rise-time isn't the most important paramaeter, but just like a poor frequency response, slow rise-time will effect fidelity in a negative way. Too slow a rise-time will blurr the leading edge of notes and limit the height of the musical peak, this could be demonstrated on an oscilloscope, particularly with rise-times in the tens of microseconds. That some fast rise-time microphones may by amusical, may also be due to a poor frequency response, or poor dynamic range- these would need to be compared sonically and electrically to really pin-point the offending parameter.
I agree with you 100% on the issue of multi-miking vs good twin mike technique. Not only does multi-miking confuse the sound field, but it paints a completely different dynamic picture of the music, particularly when close miking is used. The piano, guitar, drums, whatever, etc.... are never that loud compared to the rest of the ensemble in real life. Lets not even get into multi-track, recording booths, etc... YUKKKKKKK.
HAVE FUN,
JOEY.
