PZM means "Pressure Zone Microphone"(microphone - yeah). Their pattern is "everything" and they only work on a boundary.

If you wanted to hear what the carillon sounds like inside the carillon that's the way to go. If you wanted to get the sound inside where you play it, that's a great way to do it.

Generally you want to get the sound of the acoustic space where people are hearing the performance. With the massive church organs, the answer is obviously "inside the church." But hey. Take what you can get.
