For example, if it's a string quartet, each instrument should have its own microphone and the resulting track should be mono. If it is a piano record, I want two microphones, one for mid-trebles and one for mid-bass, 2 mono channels. If it's voice and piano, I want 3 mono channels and so on. Do you think it'll be all right with the Behringer UMC404HD and that microphone of mine plus adapter? That microphone is nice for its lightness too. >> If you really want to go into multichannel audio better buy something >> of somewhat higher quality. > > In particular, using omnidirectional microphones for 4-channel audio is > not likely to lead to a lot of differentiation unless you work with some > clever arrangement of baffles.
