Hi Max,
I'm getting into the early stages of stereo recording at this
point myself, and I understand that the decisions need to be thought
out for your next mic (or mics). I'm thinking about AT3032s also for
future options, as well as Rode NT1-A mics that are highly
recommended by group members for an affordable stereo setup. Right
now I'm using tiny binaural mics in my dish that produce some stereo
affect.
I'll send you my mono recording links off list, as I have already
posted them to this group.
Regards,
Bill
