I purchased Andy's AD1K recently and it'sa finally here sitting in front of me. It's housed in a wooden box, but I think I'll make a new one. It has a power cable with one COAX out. So, I need batteries and a pair of mics and I'm set, right? For now, I was thinking of running the internal pre and record with a D8. And remember, I've been away form taping for about 5 years, so my matching mics/pres/ads is a bit rusty.
Which mics would you run with the AD1K and why? What type of sound will I get out of that combo? If I decide to add a pre, which should I consider and why? Finally, the few years I did tape I used mainly Schoeps mics, but would consider another brand. I would like to hear some fine samples--so if you could, direct me to where they may be.
Finally, this might have been Jason Crouch's--I believe I might have pics of him and it at a SCI show at the Gorge
