STAVS WORD
Supporting audio for Stav's home recording article 1: Double Mic Drum. This is Wayne playing around the kit to test the 2-mic sound. The 2 mics are panned hard left & right. (MP3 2.1mb)



2: Lead Vox w/ no headphones and remarkably little spill. Just pieced together a few snippets of vox to show spill in both quiet and loud singing sections with no change in mic gain throughout. (MP3 1.4mb)
