Have fun tonight Krispy. I am sure you will be very pleased with your deck. Make sure you lock the keypad when you are recording. I learned that one the hard way once.

Been running my 414's a good bit recently. I like the way they sound and the flexibility of different pickup patterns. Will probably run them for Panic this weekend in Charlotte.

There are now something like five busman mod PMD-660s.  I got mine back a couple weeks ago and had a chance to give it a workout at All Good.  I think it's just awesome sounding. 

Here are my first three uploads.  Please let me know what ya'll think.

Note tho that even after you lock, you can still fuck up your levels if the knobs accidently get bumped.

Well, Grace Potter was great!  Mccooks Park is a beautiful little, small town venue and a lot of fun!  CTDave showed up and shared some space with me so there will be two sources available in couple of days...  Basically just had a great time, Dave and I both brought our kids, my wife and her sister as well as a couple of friends were all there, and it was a great way to spend an evening.  Cooler full of food and beer, good company, and great music.  What more can you ask for.

I've had the same unit for a few years.....downloads slowly but ok for festival shows. If you have a back up card it's ok. Doesn't hold a long charge (~4 GB download) but most festivals have power during the morning coffee session. I paid about $150 for mine so you're looking good.
