It's been awhile since I've updated this thread...

-One of my mics crapped out on me, so I upgraded my rig to a set of powered Core Sound Stealthy Cardiodis and the difference in quality is staggering, it's like night and day. There was an issue with loose connections inside my battery box for the Mastodon and Marilyn Manson sets, but those have been resolved and I've been VERY satisfied with the new setup...

-I also got a new deck, a Sony PCM-A10. The ability to control it thru Bluetooth with my phone is a total game changer. No more risking getting popped because I was checking levels on my deck. There was a security guard not five feet from me when I made my Mastodon tape.

-The quality of recordings coming from our local events center is unbelievable. My Ghost and Ministry tapes I made there are hands down the best sounding tapes I've ever made.
