hey,
ok so RAQ is playing in boone tonight and i'm 99% sure that they won't be running everything through the board, so i won't be able to patch out of it. however a guy i work with is getting some mic, which i'm assuming is just going to be a stereo single point. anyway i'm usually a patcher so i need a little help. what i really need is just some info on the 0db - 10db switch on my M1. i remember one time i used someones AT 822 and at the start of the recording the sound was distorted, but not brickwalled. i then switched the db and it fixed it, but it was so long ago i don't remember which one i switched it to. does the switch add or subtract the dbs? it is going to be in a small club and i'm sure it's going to be fairly loud. any info is greatly appreciated, as well as any tricks you can shoot my way.
mike
