Thank you, brother !
I have my low-pro, on-the-go setup again

I am minded to buy a dozen, to store pending the day when they run out again and can be sold at a fat profit.  But (a) I'm too nice a guy and (b), too broke (possibly because of (a)!)

[nulldogmas]

I did just buy a second one for myself, for when I want to run both mics and a board feed and monitor them remotely. (Has anyone here run two A10s via bluetooth on the same phone? I'm guessing I would want to rename one to tell them apart...)

I renamed them.
It takes some time to switch between the two.
It's not instantaneous.

Maybe someone will be interested.
Not a planned track when I was already evacuated.
Wide stereo internal mic, recorder just lies on the ground, distance of about 30 meters from the church.

@hipporu Where is this beautiful church situated? Somewhere in the east of Europe? The recording of the church bells sounds very nice btw.

Thanks, glad you liked it.

Runs to car, looks at the card with Icon hanging from rearview mirror, a gift from a departed friend, and sees the face on that church wall...
He passed during COVID quarantines, and his Panikhida was a week ago.

In this area it is probably is a more surprising coincidence than where you are.

Very sad...

COVID strange time.
Many of my friends have died, many new friends and interesting people have appeared...
I wanted to make my own recording of bells for 10 years, it happened during COVID, we didn't go anywhere during this time of festivals, but a lot of work was lost...

Coming back to the A10, it was purchased in COVID, it came in handy as a backup, it found its place in the pocket for every day for interesting sounds, I don't like sony, but I like the A10

[Ozpeter]

My condolences, Hipporu, for the loss of your friends. I am heartened to read that you have found some positives in the situation, even though these cannot compensate for the negatives.  The sound of bells can mean so much - from their tolling at a funeral to their pealing at a wedding - they are perhaps an often overlooked element in the expression of emotion through sound.  You captured these very well.

Yes, had minimal issues overall, galaxy s10+. Can be a pain switching between the two (need to turn bluetooth off and on, airplane mode off and on, hold phone in wacky positions, whatever ritual of choice to be able to connect at times, but this was me connecting to SBD A10 while I was in the front row at medium sized clubs, so I was surprised I was able to reconnect at all at that point)
