there is a thread in this forum titled something like "how does size/polar pattern...blah blah..."
read the entire thing!
dont mistake it for the one titled"are people still reading the how does size/polar pattern...."

Find a good book on acoustics (mine is in storage somewhere, and I can not find it so I do not have a name).

The other book I would suggest is Yamahas Sound Reenforcement Handbook . It is one of the most useful books out there.

I would also read all the stuff in the microphone university at the DPA website.

Neumann also has a good microphone book.

Hope this helps.

There was another Harvey Gerst thread that pre-dated the polar pattern thread.

Harvey edited it into an easy to print format that I printed and put into a binder. Very Excellent.

Do a search for it and there was another link Harvey recomended in the same thread that I also printed.

And they are both almost free just your paper and ink cost!
