Hey Freelunch! That was me taping next to you at bells. For clarification, I did run the 4023's in true ORTF, using the ORTF/XY bar.
From what I could remember at the show, it was extremely bassy, and I anticipated that, initially wanting to run XY to reduce the boomyness, but it was windy that night and the windscreens don't fit in XY, so I ran ORTF anyway.
To my surprise, as bassy as the sound was when we were there, the recording is not nearly as muddy or boomy as I thought it would be. The bottom end is actually quite a bit clearer than I remember it.
I don't think you can compare the two recordings though. The MMe is different from the V3, based on the few comparisons I've done when I've run the dpas straight into a mme (which I don't like). If you had a V2 in front of the MMe, it'd be a bit closer, but even still, that little bit of warmth the mme brings to recordings cannot be compared to the transparency of a lunatec..imo.
Anyway, nice meeting ya that night. I'll never forget the massive pile of empty beer cups, guardian of the taperless tapers section ;o)
