I use SP-BMC-2>SP Box>R-09 no problems. Run line-in at maybe 15-20 gain for amplified rock

this battery box doesnt have a gain, just roll off switches. you refering to setting the r9  input at 15-20?

yeah, the r-09 input. i almost never use the rolloff on the box, easy to clean up extra bass in audacity and too easy to screw the recording up

i'd hate to mess up 2 shows

but you use the bcm2, mine are the 12. you think there would be any issues?

doubt it, i think they're rated for the same power specs...check the sound pros website maybe? they have everything listed. What do you mean about the box switches? mine has two inside the box (one for each channel)

my bad, i did find a model number for the battery box.
its the spsb-8, and each channel has 4 switches on the outside.  hopefully this helps.

thanks

Then do what rhinowing and almost everyone else recommends and don't use the roll off. You should take advantage of the info the people on the board have learned the hard way.

to clarify about the switches (i'm assuming both boxes are set up the same): opening ALL the switches will cause you to get no signal. you to push the #1 switch on each channel to get no rolloff
