mid/side recording with ribbon mic: thoughts?
Hi forum,
Lately, I've been recording guitars through combo cabs using a Shure SM57 and a AT2050 on figure-8 set up for mid/side recording placed between 2 and 4 feet directly in front of the cab. I like the resulting sound--detailed, full, and spacious.
But I've been wondering how m/s with the SM57 and a figure-8 ribbon mic might sound. (I don't own a ribbon mic--yet.)
Does anyone have experience with m/s recording with ribbon mics? Good or bad? Suggestions for an appropriate ribbon mic? Or am I better just sticking with a condenser?
