Oooh la la!

[TNJazz]

no problem.  I've been experimenting with other mics for overheads lately, so I can spare them for a while.

Just tell me where to send them.

[twoodruff]

have you sent them yet? We may want to wait until there is something to record, or is there something I don't know about, drew?
