Hi all,
I have been fascinated with passive cardioid designs. While the concept is relatively simple "its a like a cardioid microphone in reverse", reality proves to be a bit thorny. In my experience the literature for these designs is sparse, the patent's somewhat vague, and repeatable proper simulations do not seem to be readily available. There has been quite the banter in the Directiva R2 requirements gathering thread.
At minimum, I thought it good to at least compile the various sources of information in a singular place for digestion/discussion. Below is collection of all the various bits of information I have found while researching the topic. Vaguely categorized by type...
Please by all means, if you have a valuable source of information, post it and I will try and add it here. While I do not hope that the DIY community will crack the full trick to this approach at time soon, I believe we can at least get a bit closer. If we can even get the point of an accurate simulation, that would be a win in my book.
