It´s a Herbie Hancock tune called "Butterfly".(jazz-rock-funk)
I had a seat 4 meters in front of the left stack.
+10dB internal iriver gain on my rockboxed iriver H120.

Sounds Good!
what was your external pre set at?
did you have AGC enabled on the iriver?

NO external preamp....used the internal H120 preamp at +10dB only.
My 12 Volt keychain bbox powered the mics with 11V...measured it with my multimeter today after the show.
Manual gain set to +10dB and "safety-clip" checked levels and would have lowered gain IF clipping had occured.
The 1st set I started at +15dB gain and safety-clip lowered gain to +10dB, that´s why I started the 2nd set of the show at +10dB and in the end of the show gain was still at +10dB =>which means no safety-clip kicked in during the 2nd set.
The latest rockbox builds imply a "clip-counter" on the recording screen ...counting clippings during a recording from 0(not 1 clipped part in the recording) until numerous....;) better learn to handle your gear(gain) more carefully ;).

Sounds great!
How loud was this show you reckon? I've got Rush coming up fast and I'm thinking of putting +12 gain on Iriver h120.

well it was a small club and sitting only 4m in front of the left stack makes it hard to compare which larger "boomy" indoor venues where everything is different.
I guess +10dB would be a good starter for RUSH..always depending on where you place yourself....close to the stacks in the crowd-noise or somewhere near the soundboard....less crowd-noise but more "boomy" with omnis.

I'm using MM-HLSC cards and I'm about 20m away from stage (seated venue).

ok, starting at +12dB gain seems ok.
I always started at +15db with the HLSC-1 for rock shows in big arenas BUT in the end gain was at about +10db and I never was that close to the stacks...always at the soundboard 30-40m distance to the stage.
4061 and HLSC-1 have similar sensitivity 6mV(DPA 4061)/8mV(HLSC-1)..so your HLSC-1 are a little more sensitive.
Use +12dB with "saftey-clip" engaged and you will love your recording ;).
good luck dude! ;).

Thanks, will let you know how it turns out and I'll provide samples. :)
