Hey there,
I would have done a search on this, but (as the title says) I don't know what this is called!
Anyhoo, I'm wondering what the term is, for when you are recording say a guitar cab, and you are using multiple mics, what is it called when one of those mics are placed further away from the cab?
Also, what kind of mic is it more common to use in this application? I'm guessing a condensor.
I know that you can cause phaseing issues with your recordings when doing this, any other typical issues? (or if anyone has answered my first question I can simply do a search).
I'm interested in this technique as I've been told that it can add to a recording, especially when it comes to bass drums, and it wouldn't hurt to make a guitar recording stronger!
thanks for any answers that may have come out from this.
*and yes I've just realized that I misspelled terminology
