Interesting, I've never tried that. To be honest, most of the time the mono summing isn't really a problem.

I have been wanting to try out a decca tree setup on some of the live orchestral projects, but the limitations of the situation usually don't let me. For instance, I have had conductors demand only one stand in front of the stage because of audience complaints. Often times there isn't a good way to hang them either.

Anyway, has anyone had any experience using the decca? What about mono compatibility there? I have heard some people prefer to use cardioids instead of omnis also.
