Have you tried tracking with it yet? That should give you your answer, regardless of what others say about how it sounds.

As far as which way to orient the mic - I've had no problems with either the VSM or the VX2, using the factory mount. This places the capsule in the downward position, so the heat rises up through the end where the cable connects.
