I am working on uploading the video of the cabinet war. It is a little under 1 gig in size.

i think i kind of like 1 the best.

but i wouldn't be surprised if the mic placement affected this more than you think. they all seemed to fit into catagories--some seemed really mid-boosted, others seemed mid scooped. this could of course be the speakers--but i use a sennheiser for cab mic'ing and it's amazing how much even an inch or mic angle affects the tone.

spill the beans already!

Next time we need a "designated driver/event coordinator"... the combination of alcohol, late nights and "shell shock" conspired to unravel the good Doctor's best laid plans. :wink:

But it was a good time regardless! :lol:

I have already decided that each activity will have a coordinator. I think that will help!
