Hiya all,,,  Looking to keep the load light, & need a decent, not very expensive, Stereo mic.... So far, I've only seen the Audio Technica AT822, but I'm not sure if it excels at recording acoustic guitars & vocals, as much as it does for field work?



Something that could do well also w/electric guitars (not too loud)....



Thanks for amy & all suggestions. 



Stay safe & be well~

The usual recommendation for recording acoustic guitar is a good condenser aimed at the 12th fret and optionally a second aimed toward the soundhole from off axis. I don't know enough about recording to know if you can get there with a stereo microphone.

Actually, you'd want the condenser on the sound hole, & a dynamic on the neck, or condensers on both. I just wanted to know if there's an exceptional all in one stereo mic,,, I tend not to think so....

Thanks
