Alan Blumlein's technique

I first heard "blivet" used when I was in a college fraternity. It loosely means someone who is an indoctrinated puppet who quotes the company line and never doubts anything. A Voltair's Candide who thinks this is the best of all possibly worlds.

It really depends on the type of mic you're using. Figure 8 ribbons mounted one directly over the other but splayed at 90 degree right angles works very well in large rooms with their out of phase sides away from the performers. In small rooms, two cardiod or hyper=cardiod spaced in a 90 degree criss cross works very well.
