The 722 will let you monitor in M/S but record as A/B (A=mid mic, B=side
mic). Best practice would be to record A/B and do the M/S matrixing in
software later on. "Manually", this would mean loading the B track into
two different channels and inverting the phase of one. Or you could
use a plugin. Doing the matrixing in post gives you the most
flexibility, as you can decide the stereo width during mixdown by
raising or lowering the Side channels. It's a lot easier to figure out
in the studio with proper monitors than in the field with headphones.
best,
d.
