John Popper Project W/ DJ Logic 2005-04-16 - Spirit of the Suwanne Music Park [AUD]

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is one of the oddball sources, the source and lineage are perfect, but the set list is pretty much unknown. This is a rare glimpse into one of the few side projects John Popper has done outside Blues Traver.

To be honest, I have never heard of the mics listed (CM-301) and a tertiary Google search did not return any good hits. This is common for some of the more obscure mics, made in small quantity for a specific niche, this guy mus have have a fluke opportunity to inherit these, is my take.

The recording Preamp W/UA-5 is customized via Core Sound, they are one of the best manufacturers of a stealth mic. I think that it is safe to say that aside from the Schoepps and DPA mic, which, IMO is best suited for stationary recording, but used stealth as an added feature for a $5,000 set of mics .
If I was gonna get a stealth microphone, I would seek out a Core Sound model, for sure, I believe that the Oade brothers have a customized Core Sound mic pair and battery pack and recorder package that is out of this world.
The Recorder is listed as a Sony D8, the best portable DAT recorder. After the release of this, the market moved toward recorders with the least moving parts. I had a D7 and a D8, the recorder was sitting on a table, next to my rig, another concertgoer accidentally caught a cable and took the D8 to the floor, about 2'. That was all it took to render it junk, there are so many highly sensitive moving parts that a drop could bend the frame of the transport and require replacement, which would be more that a new recorder... I used the D7, a few years ago I moved to a Marantz Pro CF recorder, which is really nice, much better than the Sony and rugged.
To buy a used D7 or D8 today is a crap shoot as to the condition...Not really recommended, it's like trying to get a pair of Nak300 or 700's, they are no longer made (You can't buy any new DAT machines) and either lightly used or tour bound and worn out.
The transfer is shown to have been the Tascam DA-30, the one I use is a pro rack mountable DAT player/recorder, very nice, the DA-20, is a bit more flexible and possibly a better A->D converter.

Thought I'd decipher this source/lineage, as it is an interesting rig.

The gear used to project the sound is incredible as heard in the recording, there were no loose ends with this set up. I bet the equipment was rented from a source of DJ Logic's... it is similar in sound to the two DJ Logic shows I have been lucky to have attended.
The show is a much more interesting topic as well, the recording is fantastic, the dynamics are exact and sparkle at the high end and the low end is a fantastic rumble, the more you amplify the more detail you get, that is related to the "Gain Structure"

This is on my short list of the best audience recordings, I'm sure you will agree once you get to listen.

Enjoy!
