		Two cardioid microphones are placed at 90 degrees and the capsules are positioned as close as possible.
		The microphone should be placed on the opposite side of the cymbal that the drummer hits and at a distance great enough that there is no threat the cymbal will hit the microphone.
		The microphone should be about 6" to 12" from the mouth with a windscreen ½ the distance between the singer and the microphone.

	Microphones for your Home Studio
		A "Cardioid" microphone is more sensitive to sounds directly in front of it than to sounds 90 degrees off to either side (when plotted on a graph the response pattern looks heart-shaped, hence the name).
		A mic with a cardioid pattern is even less sensitive to sounds directly behind it — in fact, cardioid mics practically cancel pickup of sounds emanating from directly behind the mic.
		When placing cardioid-patterned microphones on a stage or in the studio, remember the 4-to-1 rule—each microphone should be at least four times as far from the next one as it is from the sound source.

	ProSoundWeb \| How A Cardioid Microphone Works
		As if by magic, cardioid microphoness can pick up what they are aimed at, but reject sounds to the side and rear.
		Cardioids are the most popular choice for this reason.
		The cardioid mic is directional at high frequencies because its housing blocks high frequencies off-axis.

		The microphone drops into the shock-mount's center well and is secured by a latex band that gently surrounds the lower portion of the instrument's main cylinder.
		The symmetrical housing assembly surrounding the microphone's capsule and its open acoustical environment facilitates a broad off-axis response that is ideal for vocal and instrumental recording.
		In this case, the microphone was positioned roughly 10 to 12 inches in front of the embouchure (the hole in the flute's headpiece) and at a slight upward angle.

		The N/D267 is a member of a family of microphones that are manufactured with refinements that enhance sonic smoothness, improve gain-before-feedback, and provide more consistent performance with greater durability than earlier generations of N/DYM ® microphones.
		This is known as "proximity effect." Maximum bass response is produced in close-up use with the microphone /4 inch from the sound source.
		The mixer gain may be proportionately reduced, resulting in a reduction of the system's sensitivity to feedback caused by sound entering the microphone from the loudspeakers.

	Schoeps MK40 Cardioid Microphone Capsule
		Please note: This microphone type is a pressure-gradient transducer with a distinct bass rolloff, designed exclusively for the intelligible pickup of speech at close range in acoustically unfavorable conditions where proximity effect is inherent in the situation.
		If the user is faced with such problems only occasionally, this type of microphone may not be the most practical choice since it is intended to be used for very close miking, especially of speech.
		Instead, the standard version of the cardioid (MK 4 or CCM 4) can be used in combination with a variable filter (CUT or LC for MK 4, LC for CCM 4) which attenuates the low frequencies electrically.
