Maybe someone can tell me which settings will do a great recording for tonights session:
-loud bass heavy funk-rock show
-small club 300 people max
-good acoustics
-mics: church audio stc-11 cardioids with 4.7k mod
-preamp: church audio st-9100(2 wire = 1/8" = 3.5mm plug)
-recorder: iriver H140 rockboxed
I got Chris´ gear yesterday and ran some tests on my home stereo where I realised the impact of the 4.7k mod with it´s known decrease of about -15dB.
As a result of the decreased sensitivity, I would use lots(80%) of the 9100 gain to compensate the 4.7k mod impact and no gain(0dB) from the iriver´s internal preamp.
100% gain on the 9100-pre are about +23dB according to Chris.
Do you think the iriver´s combined mic/line in will get overloaded by the 9100 pre set at 80% of maximum?
thx for any advice within the next 7 hours
