So, this last Sunday I ran km184->V2->Mod SBM 1 at Tortoise, and found that I had to keep the V2's gain at around 15 in order to keep the SBM's levels up (around 7, sometimes even 6)...I know that in a different thread, someone mentioned that when running this combo you should run the V2 "hot"...is this anyone else's experience?
Tape sounds pretty good, if a little "boomy", but I'm thinking that this was due to mic placement (ORTF pretty much...110 with around 7"). I'm going to play with it some more and see how different configs work. Any advice on keeping the "boom" out? Overall, I'm pretty happy with my set up, and had a blast running it for the first time....
