It isn't the mike that overloads. THe R70 doesn't have a mike sensitivity switch so the R70 overloads. You should still be able to record just fine by manually setting the record level lower, but you will have problems if you want to use the automatic record level function that is the default re

What's the best way to go for mics on this model?For recordings at clubs? I'm thinking sound professionels split mics with the battery modulator Evidently the littel sony t mic or the electret stereo mics overload. Am I right on this...? Any responses on or off list would be superb! __

They don't likely want you pluggin in because they need all the channels on the board they use, and an extra minidisc, if someone else doesn't know that's in charge, would likely be a pain. Just one more thing the sound guy would have to worry about, that's all. At 10:08 AM 1/27/00 +1100, you wro

When you record loud gigs, you should put the Sony in manual record level instead of auto level. When you see the signal level at the top, it will clip no matter what mike you are using. Put it in manual and set it lower, it probably isn't the mike that is doing the clipping, but the record
