It makes use of room and direct microphone placement to optimize full tonal response from the instruments and character of the room, while allowing the musicians to hear themselves, and each other, without headphones. Unique attention is paid to eliminating phase, blending the room and direct mics, creating balanced dynamics, and monitoring while recording in surround .
