Array systems for meassurement

Posted by BigguyinATL on May 31, 2012 at 12:05:09:
could also be used for recording, and reproduction. Onfotunately the standard array mics are a little noisy for music recording and a high quality low noise microphone would e costprohibitive at Qty 90.

And yes Blumein array is -IMO a nice recording technique - especially useful for the ambience feed to a recording or medium sized live events in the somewhat near field. A second (or 3rd) X-Y array can be used with appropriate delays to mix in ambience from the rear of the hall. For engineered recordings, M-S mic configurations for the individual performers and instruments are great - you can "place" the track anywhere adjusting the levles and delays relative to other tracks and the mix down to Mono is honest.
