The reason ribbons are hyped is their figure8 pattern, which is mostly used to capture stereo image (M/S). Second most used scenario is capturing two BG singers to one track.

Neither of these use cases IMO compliment a dead room. Because if you use it as a mono mic, you will also capture the sound you don't want. If your room was very alive, then fig8 might be a nice spice.

Best if you could rent a fig8 mic to hear it yourself.
