Thanks Curt, for posting your webpage of your experiments.  The
photos, descriptions, and recording samples of your various
arrays are helpful.
The "hole in the middle" issue seems to be important for nature
recording:  people keep mentioning it, and so I keep listening for
it in my own recordings.  The problem I have is discerning
between a hole made by my mics and a hole that is naturally
there in the soundscape: I suppose it might not matter until
something passes by (like a duck) from one side to the other
and suddenly fades in and out of the hole.  I find it interesting you
suggest a hole can cause the sounds to appear to be behind
you:  I'll have to listen for that.
