The Pearl DS 60 offers stereo recording in different modes. The microphone contains two (18 Hz to 25 kHz) rectangular dual membrane capsules, mounted one above the other, 90° apart. During an X-Y recording, simply turn the microphone and direct the engraved X-Y sign towards the centre of the sound field. For M-S recording, there is an engraved M-S sign to be used in the same way. The required microphone pattern is chosen at the console. Each capsule provides 180° coincident stereo.
