Keep us posted on how it works out. I'd be curious to hear what you think of it. I've put my bass through the stripped down DI-100 which gives a phat, clean signal to work with. I usually end up using a compression (although it looks like the mic200 has a built-in limiter) and/or EQ plugin to get the bass track to sit comfortably in the mix. If the mic200 sounds good and has some versatility, it would seem like it could get some heavy use on vocals and other instruments as well. cheers, Neal ____________________________________________________ Yahoo!
