Burris Ewell's MicroTracker Comparison, 2005-09-23
Groovy Judy @ Transamerica Redwood Park

ORTF Neumann KM-140 w/big spherical foam windscreens
The MT crashes when taking a 44.1 SPDIF stream, so this is 48k.
KM140>MT - sensitivity on high ("L") 5db digital gain added in post to get the levels closer to the other two tracks
KM140>V2>MT - sensitivity on low ("H")
KM140>V2>AD2k+ - Note, there is some diginoise on this track. I did not use a proper digi cable, rather a zip cord RCA that's old and crappy. So I wouldn't blame it on the MT.
During recording it only crashed once. Or, maybe it crashed or maybe it was just a bug that prevents the screen from updating. I think I hit that one a couple of times.
As of 1.0, the MicroTracker is terribly buggy.
I'm also testing trackerless torrents today. You need a trackerless BitTorrent client to download this such as BitTorrent 4.1 or BitComet 0.59/0.60
