I just bought the MC012 package and I can't figure out which capsule is which. One has a open circle (I assume this one is the omnidirectional?). there is one with a circle with a "drip" coming out of it and a circle with an indent. But I don't know which one is which? The instructions don't say. Please help! Thanks!

The different symbols represent the different pick up patterns of the capsules, the circle represents omni which means that the capsule picks up equally from all directions, the circle with the dent is Cardioid cause it's pattern is shaped like a heart , the circle with the drip is Hyper-cardioid cause it's pickup pattern is mainly front, some back and nothing at 30 degrees to either side.
