While on this subject... does anybody's two ears hear the same?
Not trying to be a wise ass but I've done stereo recordings with two different types of mics at times and have really dug the results (talking drums, not classical work here).
I find because of the way we (most engineers) create stereo mixes that one side always seems to be "the bright side" and one side always seems to be "the dark" side depending on what is panned where.
With all these frequencies floating in the stereo spectrum rarely do the drums sound "the same" (if you will) on each side... so I can tell you as a matter of fact no one has ever said to me, "did you use different mics on the drum overheads" while listening to the stereo mix. Now, if you solo the overheads that's a different story
but again, sometimes I really like what the two different mics are capturing.
So I tend to agree with Alan here and say use a little EQ and call it a day.
Personally when doing critical stereo recording I always use these U87's modded by this guy named Klaus Heyne... if you can get him to do the work, you'd be all set. (Sometimes it was a modded pair of U67's but 9 times out of 10 I preferred the U87's.)
I'd also recommend Klaus' old right hand man, James Gangwer up in the good old Bay Area...
Good luck James.
