... now that i own this modsbm-1! wow, what a difference! my previous rigs don't hold a candle to my current dpa 4061s > modmps-6010 > oade modsbm-1 > d8. fuller, rounded, more musical sound. solid, full low end, enhanced but not over-exaggerated. the high end could use some de-crisping and smoothin' out but the BALLS factor in my tapes is up at least three notches! this combo is what i've been yearning for, in my cursed poverty, since i started listening to recordings critically and researching gear. i have climbed the mountain and it is good.
special thanks to:
1) st_l-taper for the hookup
2) this engineering company for employing me
3) some of my favorite bands for putting on EXCELLENT shows recently, including, but not limited to:
-ministry, which is by far the best band in the world
-ras michael and the sons of negus (along with the whole monterey bay reggaefest)
-in flames
4) my d8 for hangin' in there like a CHAMP
5) myself for being responsible for new "at-the show" techniques (and the constant pursuit of perfection)
6) taperssection for enhancing my musical and taping life!
word to all of your mothers!

p.s. -T to my IBM HD that just took a dive, but +T to a new maxtor 120 gigger and windows 2000! i mention this because i have to retransfer and re-track all my recent tapes... d'oh!
