Thanks Greg W -- what a great idea. And by the way, those Alcatraz recordi=
ngs on your
website are really beautiful. Wonderful open stereo image with those wide =
cardioids. (I'm
still waiting for the Sequoia National Park 542MB file to download....)
For now I'm going to continue to investigate the slightly gangly setup of a=
suspended
stereo bar with crossed CMC64s and W20R1s; I'll keep you posted with my fin=
dings. But
your setup is a good thing to keep in mind for the future. I wonder if the=
GVCs could be
tightened?
