How did Sennheiser HD 580 sounded as 3D VR microphones for drums

At your own risk


Results were promising.


All that is needed is to make a cable (female headphone on one side, 2 male XLR on the other).


Drummer wears headphones (microphones). The voice is very bad due to extreme proximity effect.


Drums sounded very interesting and there was certainly a sense of 3D. Cymbals were soft and not harsh. The sound was full.


It may be worth experimenting with other microphones...headphones.


Setup:


Room with Pleiades roofing felt* membrane panel absorbers and cotton - drums - HD580 as mics - Sony TC-D5 pro with issues - TDK SA-X type II cassette - Sony TC-D5 pro - HD580 for playback


*it seems better to use linoleum bass panel absorbers as they do not give an odor
