I've recently discovered the world of Pressure Zone Microphones, and was able to aquire one for dirt cheap. I haven't been able to test it out yet, but from what I've gathered, it sounds like the perfect thing for micing a cab.
"The main advantage of this technology is the elimination of interference from reflected sound waves. A normal microphone will pick up sound waves from the primary source and also any reverberations, which can result in unnatural sound reproduction. In the pressure zone microphone, sound waves are always in phase and there is no interference."
This sounds like exactly the kind of advantage that micing a cab would use. No more worrying about early reflections or phasing issues, just one or more of these.
So what's the catch?
