Affordable Matched Pairs
One of the factors contributing to the best recordings in the world is the use of stereo miking techniques. Pro engineers have long relied on expensive matched pairs of microphones in attaining optimal results from stereo recording methods. Now, affordable matched pairs are within reach. That's because all of M-Audio's professional microphones are within +/-1dB of each other - a closer tolerance than many manufacturers accept while they charge more for custom-ordered matched pairs. With M-Audio professional microphones, matched pairs are as simple as buying two of the same affordable model.
