SP-SPSB-1 lists these sets as options for Bass Roll Off:

16, 69, 95, 107, 160, 195, and 888 khz...

Are those the only presets or can you set an exact # to use?

Depends on your mics. For the CMC2s I use:

16Hz(no bass roll off): Acoustic shows
95Hz: Balcony, loud rock music
107/160Hz: Small clubs, rock music
UK based taper: MK4>Nbox Platinum>PCM-M10
AT853C>CA9200 / PIPsqueak>Tascam DR-2D

I highly recommend the SP-CMC-2 microphones over the GSCs.  The extended frequency response is the obvious advantage here.

I am getting Giant Squid Cardroid's here pretty cheap, pretty soon...

Those work nicely?

16, 69, 95, 107, 160, 195, and 888 khz...

I don't really get how they can publish those numbers without specifying a little more info.  The rolloff frequency ALSO depends on the input impedance of the recording device.  You actually need to know what impedance those were spec'd at and what the input impedance of your recording device is.  I went through this with CSBs, where the bass rolloff spec is calculated based on a Sony DAT which was not the same as my Sharp MD.

And on a related note, the typical input impedance line-in will render the bass rolloff useless (it's so low that it's non-existent).  The rolloff will only work with mic-in, so if you think you're getting enough output to run line-in (generallly preferable), then don't bother pursuing a box with rolloff - you can do it with software after the fact.

Playback: Pioneer DV-578 > Lucid DA 9624 >many funny little british boxes > Linn Isobarik PMS
