A440, When recording with your BMC-2's and RS volume control at a large venue, have you experienced any distortion or overloading? Was crowd noise a factor? I noticed the mics do pick up a lot of bass too. Thanks in advance!!

Very interesting. I would think that means that it probably was not the disc that was the problem. There must be some other reason why the dropouts occur.

I usually record it into the pc in realtime via soundcard or through SS because I don't trust the software. I have had older md's playback with a dropout but that was deck related and wasn't on the actual recording. I wonder if anyone has tried to record over the same disc to see if the dropouts occured in the same places if at all. I have only recorded on one HI-MD disc and didn't have a problem so I can't check myself.

Thanks! One other question, when you have a dropout is there a skip in the music or is it inserting a gap in the track? I do live recording myself and I would rather live with a dropout (if I could edit it out later) and record in PCM rather than record in HI-SP.
