one more sample for you...from my first night out with these mics.

http://live.logicind.com/constellations/22feb2008/

I realized after taping that my DIN setup was not actually DIN.  I didn't change my stand since my last set of mics and these 8040s were a little too far apart to really be DIN.  I think it would have come out better had I payed a little more attention!  for the purist, i did do a small bit of editing (damn you George Lucas!).  i eq'ed the tracks slightly and added a little gain (1db).  bob.

I am working on my first real recording with my 8040's right now...  I was able to get out to the Belly Up and see Shawn Mullins do a Solo Acoustic show on St Patty's day.

I am listening while it is normalized etc...

Sound is really good - I am very pleased with the mics and overall sound.

I will post some samples in a day or so.
