The lower sensitivity for amplified condition is a mute point.

I am not a huge schoeps fan.... But I have to admit that is a real fine recording......  I wonder if the CMR's change the sound in any manner compared to the cmc bodies?  or did the moon and stars just align perfectly this night.... I know so much comes into play outside the mics. 

Thanks for the info....OOK

Both, the bb is for "not so open" situations like tonight's Elton John Show and the littlebox for open situations and quieter stuff where i may need a little more gain

I think its about the same size 3.2 x 2.1 x .09 and  Jon at Naiant said was it will run the cmrs for a very long time

Hi!

This rig seems great... Is there any technical reason recordings made with this rig would have lower quality than with an nbox rig?

What kind of schoeps cmr's would be the right ones? just the plain ones? (I saw they had some particular others too)

there is only one cmr, but they offer a couple different cable lengths and you put your own connector on(they are a 3 wire setup) and i had the bb custom made as well as the littlebox pre to power them depending on situation, there is a -12bd loss of sensativity but that isn't a issue which recording live music especially loud stuff

I don't think it was ever clarified whether the CMR polarizes the capsule at the full 60 volts, like a schoeps body or nbox.  The lemosax only polarizes to 48v.   If not, then that would be a "technical reason".
