Hi All,

I received the same wisdom from Al Goff many years ago (1997?). A (sonic) picture is worth a thousand words ...

Samples of my Leslie, mic'ed in stereo with (2) SM57's with Shure windscreens on top, using the mounting in the pictures I posted yesterday, and a Heil PR40 bottom. Mics pointed slightly off-axis. Reflectors in place, no scrim cloth --
