Slightly off topic: I know theory says to remove the delays between multiple 
mics for coherency. I find every time I've done that the sense of depth 
collapses. The clients & I always prefer the non-time-corrected version. I 
might move one pair forward or back a few milliseconds if the combs are making 
for an undesirable timbre, but generally the greatly different ambience in the 
near vs distant pairs makes that a bit of a non-issue.
