How different was that bass sound compared to what you were hearing with your ears? It's hard for me to tell on my laptop, but I would think a battery box may have helped. Were you clipping at all? How high was your recording level? I know that there are significant differences in the MT1 and 2, so I may not be of help. On the MT1, the 1/8 inputs are not very good, but the 1/4 trs are. I have had bass distort if I clopped using the 1/8 inputs but found the 1/4 trs inputs very forgiving.

I didn't have any clipping on my mt2 or in the wav's when I transferred the files...even had to boost the levels some. I left the mt2 at the lowest level possible. Had to set it quickly and stow it. As far as the sound in the venue, was very bassy but wasn't sounding distorted. I ordered a 1/8 mini to TRS connector but know that using that with unbalanced mics is gonna introduce that lovely "sprinkler noise".
Maybe that extra 4 volts of power will be what I need. Maybe while my stepkids are away this weekend I'll be able to do some living room testing and compare the diff w/the bb in the chain.
Thanks for your help... +4 tix...
