The CSBs & battery box, or the CA-14 or the AT853 with the CA-9100 would all make a fine set up and great deals here:
http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=183140.0http://taperssection.com/index.php?topic=183629.0Ive used a HR09, pager size sonic studios preamp, and DSM mics to stealth for the last 10 years and have had good results. Usually rock/jazz concerts. A few weeks ago I sent the dsm mics in for a minor repair after corresponding with Leonard around May. Like an idiot I just sent them insured without requiring a signature. Over the years he has been extremely helpful so I didnt really think twice about this.... now I find out that I have no contact with him via email or phone. I hope he is alright as this is out of character....Does anyone know whats going on?
Ive got something I want to pull in a month and I'm about to give up hope on getting the DSM mics back; so Im thinking about plan B. I have always wanted to upgrade the method/equipment but probably cant drop 3k at one time and a two week turnaround probably wont work for ordering great mics.
Can anyone recommend stealth mics that would be compatable with the HR09 and PA-SX preamp?? Im now thinking of getting a sony pcm-d100 and then getting mics and something like a USBPre2 later on. In the meantime I would attempt to pull the shows with the sony internal mics. Other archivist's may be there but I would want to try something like that.
Any ideas on how to get up and running within 3 weeks?
Please let me know if you have any status on Leonard.
Thanks!!
