I have a set of AT Omni mics which have connections for a pair of AT8531 battery modules (each one runs on a AA battery). These plug into my Edirol R9 recorder. I have used this set up before at really loud concerts and I did not have good results, I think its refered to as brickwalling. Anyway, I'm going to tape a live show in a few days and I am not going to bother with bringing the AT8531's since I'm going to be really close to the stacks. Any suggestions on picking up a set of mics real quick which won't overload? If I where to buy just another set of mics should I use line in or mic in?
Thanks - Paul
