I have a 8 track recording system that I have good handle on and is very portable (nothing fancy, just an MOTU 828 ver 1, a couple of large and small diaphragm mics, a 57, a 58, and a on loan D112). It isn't the highest quality of gear, but most of it works and for the most part I can get clean signals. I like to take this around and record bands in their practice space. It is fun and makes me friends. I recorded some friends of mine a time or two, and I posted some pictures above. I also cut some samples out of the recording and made a noisey ambient track. Here it be.
Note on the kick head placement in this pic, I got a much better sound the second time moving the mic off the sound hole, right in the center of the head, about 3-5" back. Good thud.
