Not a lot in it, but B has the edge for me. I get the impression it's
resolving more detail.

OK, Wally - noted, many thanks! I'll reveal all in due course.

Caveat - I listened on my cheapo "Advent" brand headphones. On those, I
thought the clarinet was easiest to tell apart. Mic A sounded rounder or
maybe softer than B. I felt B gave a better impression of there being a
reed. The piano was harder to tell apart - it was more just the odd note
that stood out. A bit like the clart, when I felt there was a difference,
B
gave more of the impression of vibrating strings. I think that translates
into a bit more top end. I struggled to hear any difference between the
mics
with the sax.


OK, thanks for that.



Still got your MR2? Swim's has gone now - she got 60 quid for it!! :-)

Somebody got a serious bargain at that price.


No they didn't - it died and was scrapped!

I reckon the cam belt went and bent the valves - it had lost all power and
there was no compression on the three cylinders the garage guy could reach!
Thought about you as I handed two (spare) rear wheels with good tyres om to
a scrap dealer last week!


Yep, still got mine.
Brilliant motors - still feels great every time I get into it.

:-)




If you're looking for musos for the UKRAnian All Stars, I might be
interested in having a bash at something.


Aha!! :-)


Kinda depends on the tune - ie,
whether or not I can improvise something, and on whether I can play a
suitable instrument to a standard that's better than crap.


I thinks the tune depends upon what instruments/performers are available!


(Is 'rubbish'
better than 'crap'?)


Rubbish is good - it's a start!


I used to be decent at guitar until I stopped playing
about three years ago, I'm crap at piano, and I'm an unknown quantity on
MIDI keyboard plus old Hammond sound module (been meaning to set that up
and
plug it into a valve guitar amp to see how it sounds).


OK, so what do you think would be the best to have a go with? We live in an
'endless multitracking age' so the more instruments the better, if you are
multi-facetted!! Iain's the Bandleader (as well as mixing engineer and
producer) - I'm sure he can scrape summat suitable together when he knows
what he's got to work with!
