I ran oktava>mp2 for a long time. The bass is a issue and I wouldnt recommend it. I add oktava>mp2>adc-20 and the adc-20 helped. I would go with the v2 or ua-5

josh,
you know you want the UA5. get a p-mod tho, there aren't much of those and i bet octavas>p-mod would sound better than w-mod in a some situations, like last saturday at Cicero's....

V2, sonosax, psp-2, dmic-20 would all be great choices and like others have said the a/d in the m1 is pretty good.

Brian, what happened to the board patch at Cicero's?  That in-house matrix was always nice to have....

One of my good friends now runs the sound there a few times a week (Colin)...  I haven't been in a while!

RCA out on matrix board went poo poo. the xlr outs from the board are clean but straight board mixes from cicero's sound funky. I need to get a XLR(f)>RCA(m) cable so i can continue running matrixes there. until them i'm going straight aud with necessary post EQ in SF 6.0

Auds in Cicero's?  That must be rough.. Very rough.  That room usually sucks.  If I remember right I ran aud there for Hookah like, 3 years ago, and the sound was just awful.


I'm thinking of Bela...  however the woman has a few days off and we've been thinking about driving down to see some friends in New Orleans, so we might do that, leaving on Sat. night...  but if not, Bela it is!

+T for Team STL (and for the Cicero's matrix being out :( ;) )

You can  use mine and josh's MP2 sometime, although we currently seem to be missing the power cable...I've mostly been using it stealth though, so I just run batteries in it.  
We've got the ADC20 you can run with it as well.  
We did Umphreys at the fox last year...ran one deck out of the ADC20 and one out of the V2.  We both preferred the ADC20 tape, a bit more full/rounded, but not much....I use the ADC when I can run the full rig, but don't feel like I'm sacrificing too much by not using it.

Doesn't it take the same connector as the v3 power connection?  If it's the same part, I can build you another power cable, I have the materials lying around...

PM me if you're interested.

Lee are you making Bush a new V3 power cable? If you have it ready by the X-mas Jam maybe I can swing through & pick it up.

Nope.  The V3 use Switchcraft S760K, the ADC-20 and MP-2 use 760K.  The specs are different.
