[QUOTE="Steve Milner, post: 25125, member: 9"] Re: Congos... What your favorite mic? Jay, I wouldn't consider sweetwater to be the definitive answer on anything either, it was just an easily quotable online reference. The most important part of which, may be just clarifying that it is a 3:1 rule and NOT a 3' rule. Even you made an example of placing MIC A at a distance of 1' from te source and then MIC B at a distance of 3' from the same source... which would NOT be a correct implementation of the rule... that would be a 2:1 relationship. I too need to re-read Bob's book for sure.... along with a few others. I just finished with "Electricity for the Entertainment Engineer" (Richard Cadena) and am starting "Control Systems for Live Entertainment" (John Huntington) which are both great books, and it's always nice to learn a few things that aren't strictly audio.
