I'm loving the m201 and the m160 quite a bit....
here's a wee clip with those two mics blended:

Woah, I like it. Taking this with a grain of salt for now, because that amp will sound amazing no matter what you try and record it with.

How do you set up your M160, Lasse? According to Recordinghacks, the mic is VERY dark up close, but evens out at the 10"-1m mark. But I wouldn't call your clip dark...?

the 160 has a strong proximity effect.
I usualy have it 10-20cm from the cloth (see pic)

Mixing!
I like m201. Use it on snare 95% of the time these days and if I'm micing and amp with 2 mics, it's usually a 57+201 combo (straight on separate speakers).

Man this is probably one of my favorite tones i've heard from you, sounds great! I've been thinking about getting a M160 for a while even though i have a pair of lundhal fatheads for ribbons.

Ahh, okay. Didn't notice the change in pic in the video! So no matter what mic you blend the M160 with you have it spaced back about 10-20cm along with it? Or can you have another mic closer using the 3-to-1 rule? I certainly have no complaints about using mics further back, as it gets a roomier sound that's a lot nicer than the usual "inside the speaker" tones. However since I started out learning about micing cabs close up, this is kinda new to me
