do you think recording a snare with 2 mics is better? I've heard very mixed things about this technique, I'm not sure if it always works,
I ask because someone I know who I'll be mixing a track for them soon said they will be doing it this way and I was recommending using 1x sm57 instead because there will be phase issues.
He insisted the snare will sound 'bigger' with 2 mics, what do you think of this? is he right? I've only ever used one sm57 and it works well. Any recording engineers give me some tips?
