Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A near-coincident pair recording is a stereo microphone technique where two directional microphones are placed close together at an angle between 60 and 90 degrees. This technique produces a strong stereo image with sharp imaging and an accurate stereo spread, making option A the correct choice. A ping pong effect and deep bass are not characteristics of a near-coincident pair recording, therefore options B and D are incorrect. While mono compatibility is important, a near-coincident pair recording typically produces a wider stereo spread, making option C incorrect.
