A couple of newb questions
heathen:
I've got a Roland R-05, CA Ugly BB,and CA14 omnis. I have a couple of questions:
1) Should the plug coming out of the BB go to the mic or line in of the R-05?
2) If I don't use the bass rolloff for an outdoor show and pick up wind noise, could I apply a bass rolloff in post and get the same result as if I'd used it in the first place?
Thanks!
morst:
Wind noise can not really be fixed, only prevented.
Bass roll off can be applied later if needed, but if there is no bass, it can not be effectively restored later.
bass roll off is for speech, not music, in my experience.
heathen:
I'll try it without any bass rolloff.
If I plug the CA BB into the mic input, should I have plug-in power on or off? I've tried searching and haven't found a definitive answer. (This is for a rock show, btw.)
eman:
I'd go with line in if you can get some levels for the house music, say -20dB but if you can't get the house to show at all then maybe try the mic in. Plug in power is not needed with the battery box.
ilduclo:
Play around with the settings on a few shows that you don't care how they come out. I'd suggest line in for loud shows, mic in only for when you aren't getting much input with the line in. Go 24 bit and you can amplify it later without getting hiss
