Actually- my friend is the person that does the recording for Chamber Music
Northwest. His largest camera setups are usually 4 cameras, but he has a
pan-tilt head on the tripod so he can control exactly where they are
pointing (without having to hire extra cameras operators). Makes for a
larger look than it actually is.

Microphones are very good quality as well- he's won Grammy's for his work
with the Southwest Chamber Music Society. Knowing his preferences, it is
probably a Schoeps pair in the center and Sennheiser mics as the outriggers.
A very nice setup indeed.
