hi,
the perfect would be for me to get two mkh800.. but this is a little
bit too expensive.
but this brings up the idea that i maybe should buy one mkh800 and
one mkh30.. i would have ms and could change the characteristics..
this would be maybe an option, but the mkh800 seems to be bigger, so
i guess i could not use my sennheiser windshield and would have to
get a stereo rycote windshield.. right?
so this would mean a lot more costs..
