Two dual-diaphragm capsules mounted one above the other.  By appropriate 
summation one can in principle achieve any first-order pattern pointed in any 
horizontal direction.  Thus it's possible to output the horizontal part of 
first-order B-format.  Dual-diaphragm capsules can have very good 
figure-of-eight patterns, even at the large size of these capsules.  But the 
omni component tends to be quite impaired.  But if omni is made by summing 
together the outputs of all four diaphragms then it should be somewhat 
improved. 
 This could work fairly well.

I haven't used this microphone but I've done similar things, with good success.

The lack of a vertical component is an interesting conundrum.  I always insist 
on recording 'Z', and then almost never end up using it...

Hello,

anyone tried these multichannel mic?

I wonder what the "quad" configuration is.

Thanks.
