    Nope, I was up at 5am and figured "what the hell"..... It's only
    once a year. :)

    Yt> As far as sound quality, some of the aud tapes are very VERY good...

    A lot of people just don't realize that you could master a bootleg directly to a 1 million-bit-per-second digital sampler, and if the mikes or mike placement is done wrong, it isn't going to sound better than a well-done analog tape.

    It's not the recording media, it's the recording procedure.

    For taping shows....you can have the best DAT deck on earth, but if you've got a crappy mic then all that money spent on the deck was pointless. Invest in quality microphones. I have about 5 sets of mics at my disposal now. Most recently I've bought some called Core Sound for $250 and they were well worth it. (Cost almost as much as my D3) If you buy the D3...THROW AWAY THE STOCK MIC and get another mic at a Radio Shack or a Best Buy to start out with. Granted, the stock mic can pull through at certain shows and give you a good recording, but for the most part when I used it I got shitty tapes. (Very tinny....no bass at all) I picked up a mono-mic (Audio Technica ATR 35s) at Best Buy for 30 bucks, got a stereo adaptor and have made some incredible recordings with that set up. Next summer I'm going to finally graduate to a D7 DAT....the D3 goes in the trash. (How much could a used...very used...one go for?) By the way, if you get a D6, they are harder to crotch to sneak it into shows. That is how most of you get your decks in...isn't it? I've heard of other ways to do it. (Hide it in a woman's purse...wear a fake cast on a leg...etc...be creative)
