Hi there -
I am new to recording (and the forum).
I'm interested in trying some stereo patterns, such as ORTF and X/Y. (There is a wikipedia article under Stereophonic Sound, but I'm unable to post the link since I'm a newbie).
However, I only have a pair of side-address microphones (I'm not sure what the technical term is for the microphones used in the diagrams..pencil microphones?)...
Can I use side-address for these techniques? Is there a difference?
Thanks.
