also change the system ala NOS, XY, AB, Blumlein, ORTF etc etc to see other variations in the stereo field etc.

Great interview with Matt. Thanks for that. I also dig the Oktava MK 012s (I own 5 of them). Oktava changed the designation to “MK” from “MC” to help distinguish from the counterfeits. So you should be good if the mic is “MK”.
That stereo mic array calculator (“ORTF Calculator”) is awesome! Someone else has been reading Michael Williams because it give the SRA value. Love it.
