I have an MZ-NHF800 which I recently used to record a live acoustic concert which had no sound reinforcement. I used a Sony MS907 with a Mic sensisitivity setting of "High Sensitivity" and an AGC of "Standard". The recording was OK. For a first try, all auto settings and unmonitored, I'm pretty happy. I recently picked up a set of Sound Professionals SP-TFB-2 in ear binaural mics. In order to optimize the recording settings, I put on variety of music on my home stereo and played it at a variety of volume levels and then recorded the same section of music repeatedly, noting the tracks and the settings. In this way, I feel I'm a little better prepared for my next live recording situation. What I haven't tried is going through the line in to see if there is any improvement with either mic. BTW, I've found that, at least with my mics, the loud music setting increases BG noise significantly. Paolo
