I used BM-700 bodies with really open head baskets. The narration was recorded using one of these as well.

I have had comments on the fact that the two mics don't appear perfectly synced. That is the spacing of them and time delay of the claps to spaced mics. Here is one mic going to both recorders to hear for yourself and a picture of zoomed into show actual samples https://www.dropbox.com/s/zjhxwc96jer...

After one hour, these were off by two samples @48Khz. So that is about 42 Microseconds. That equates to 14 Millimeters of sound travel .
