so I ran this onstage(card/DIN) for Lotus at Alley Katz sat night....I HAD to run the V2 with ZERO gain(gain @10, trim @ -10) and the SBM-1 was down to 6 and my levels were still hitting 3-0.
tape sounds nice and fat, with deep clear bass and kick. was glad the drums didnt overpower the right facing mic as the kick drum was a mere 3' directly to the right of the mics...
anyone else ever have to run the V2 so low?!

Wow, that is odd. When running the TL > V2 > MMe combo on-stage, I never experienced any issue like that, and I tape on-stage at the Lincoln Theatre as often as possible. I would usually have L and R gain set to 25 with trim always set on 0.
Hmmm... how close to the instruments were you?
Glad to see a couple of guys running the TL > V2 combo, especially with sbm-1's and MMe behind that. Great sounding setup to my ears. There is what, three people running this rig now right? Luvean, Brain Sax and Justin O'Rourke? Sweet!

from what i've heard so far i love the v2 > modsbm1 combo. sounds great w/ the tl's!

<--25'--> ^
* g/k b * |
* g * 35'
*p x d* |
******* v
g/k = guitar/keyboard
b = bass and stuff
g = guitar
p = percussion and electronics
d = drums (facing percussion)
x = onstage mics(all 3 sources)
mics were center to percussion and drums, with about 3' clearance on both sides.
all instruments had onstage amps

i wouldnt worry a out luvean, the last show i did was about 10' from stage and it was loud as hell, ran the v2 at about 5 db of gain and the sbm1 at about 7, although this happens a good amount for me, my AT's hav a super hot output, i dont think i ever got over 20db of gain out of the v2 going into the sbm1, things might change now that im moving to the mme a/d, no worries on running the v2 low

I think this is your answer. You were just really close to the drums and percussion, with the guitar right in front of you. As long as the tape sounds good, I would continue to tape from thart spot if you like it.

"I think this is your answer. You were just really close to the drums and percussion, with the guitar right in front of you."
yeah, though I am pleasantly surprised that the drums arent overpowering.
the cymbals are SO crisp and clear with a nice and defined kick...these 2 things are so often missing when recording from section or stacks :) (granted, this is mostly due to foh)
have a upcoming on-stage run this weekend: Big In Japan at Fletchers(B'more) and TransAM at Alley Katz(hopefully)
