A Nagra and a crossed pair of STC 4038s can often sound more natural
than anything churned out by the Abbey Road Studios! Especially on
your beloved 'small ensembles'.

We are all agreed that a co-incidental pair, a tree or a tree with
outriggers
is an excellent way to record a small ensemble.

But my beloved ensemble is:
4 tpts. 4 tmbs. 5 saxes. Piano. Gtr. Bass. Drums. Percussion.

Try your Nagra and a pair of 4038s with that:-)
