I was just reading through on of my old Tape Op issued on the can last night and read an artticle about using m/s matrix recording in unconventional ways.
I have a figure 8 mic but have no idea how to set up a a matrix to split the signal.
So I figured that i could use three mics on an amp to get similar results.
By putting a mic in front of the speaker (as you normally would) and another mic facing the back of the speaker cone, this would simulate the "out-of-phase - ness" of the fig 8 mic put through an m/s matrix, yes.
Because the two mics would be out of phase. ?
I tried this with a vocal run into the pre and split out of the pre with one goind direct to track 3 and then the other going to my amp (with judicious spring reverb) and the two mics run to tracks 1 and 2, panned hard left and right.
It sounds kinda cool, but is this the same thing??????
What do you need for an m/s matrix???
