  • Microphones used: Mojave Audio MA-101 matched pair
  • Technique: 48" above keys, ORTF (17cm spacing, 110º separation)
  • Preamp/Interface: Focusrite Scarlett 18i20

All samples were recorded on the same frame and tube set.  The different bar sets were simply exchanged to try and get as true a comparison as possible.  The SEP was recorded first and then progressed through to the Artist bar set.  To hear the full arrangement of Shenandoah please go to the Artist page.
