Nicely done! I watched (or rather listened to) the ribbon version as well, both are really useful. Very much appreciate your attention to detail in volume levels and editing. Tip for anyone listening critically: Close your eyes, your brain will focus more on the sound.

The amount of useful sonic information packed in this video( and in such a concise format) is astonishing. As someone that would someday like to get out of Lofi-Land, your videos seem to be a boon! Subscribed!

Dear Benno, Fantastic video for drum recording enthousiasts, thank you very much. One can hear perfectly the sound stages these different set-ups can display.

Great side by side comparison!

It's A-B for me.

Great sound! You’ve got a new sub, look forward to more videos

Phantastic stuff! Thanks a lot!

❤❤❤❤❤❤

have favored the glyn johns as of recent due to the superior stereo separation, great video

Ah, much better with the correction. I still think ORTF sounds a bit muddy compared to X-Y and A-B, and I don't like M-S at all. This time, I think I have to go with A-B. It's still a bit wider than I like, but the sound is very clean. Recorderman would be great if I were looking for something with more "classic rock" character, without the issues of Glyn Johns you mentioned in another post.
