    It sounds nicer than faking it with stereo effects. In this example, Avenson STO-2 (omni mics) --&rt; RME Fireface 400 --&rt; Ableton Live --&rt; iZotope Ozone (for slight limiting only! No effects, compressors or EQs!)

    A friend sold me on stereo pairs when he lent me his Rode NT5 pair. I knew right away I had to get my own stereo pair of mics, when I heard how easy it was to get good-sounding recordings without having to muck around with so many effects. I settled with an omnidirectional Avenson STO-2 pair-- No proximity effect, which means mic everything up close. Nowadays, I often throw an EQ & compressor on a recording and move right along.
