Yowdy,

The other night i recorded my first live gig on my MD. The sound guy wouldn't let me 
plug into the desk, even though the band requested it. Luckily i took along my mic. It 
was given to me as a gift by minidiscweb, due to the fact that i' requested a blue 
unit but they only had white. The mic ain't that great; it's a Aiwa Stereo condenser 
microphone CM-TS22 (marked as a business/live recording microphone).
Anyway the recording is pretty good but quite distorted. It was a pretty loud PA, in a 
smallish bar. It doesn't sound to me like digital distortion (i had my R91 on auto 
rec. level setting), so i'm guessing it would be the mic that was clipping. On 
playback however, the signal sits pretty well on full (i'm guessing the wave form has 
pretty straight edges due to the clipping?).

I was going to buy a Soundprofessional AT 853 mic soon. I've heard this is a great 
sounding mic, but would this also be the solution to the clipping problem? Also, is 
this one of the best for recording loud indoor (and outdoor) gigs?

Cheers,
Jason
