lots of people use gm or mule for gov't mule.. I've seen both many times. Don't know much about garaj mahal so I guess I can't really answer.... would be good to know, though.

It was depending on the band but anywhere from the record level indicator notch to about the "opening" just to the top left of the record wheel inset to about 1'Oclock for this past festival.

Like others have mentioned it seems to be OK with both Orange Light's going at it fairly good  (I forget what numbers those represent at the moment).

This is with a WCM unit!  You would really have to work to overload it with mics in an average taping situation methinks.
Yes, but what do you HEAR?

Pad on and push the red! (OVER)

Orange -6dB and -2dB...I think...I'm at work, working hard as you can see.  :)

How does the ACM mod compare to the WCM mod on the 660?  I'm planning on running C4's in front of it and I'm not sure which way to go?

and PaullySC, do you have any C4>660 shows up on etree or the archive?  I'm curious to see what the combo sounds like.
Thanks

I have a couple on the archive but they weren't my best recordings. By best recording so far is still on my hard drive but a friend used the first two tracks of my source in his so you can hear atleast a couple songs until I can get it up. Here's the link.
