Looks like you are ready to hit the record button Bruno. Right off I recognized the AKG C1000s case and then saw it in the mic stand. I have one but never really figured out what it works best on. I've used it on backing vocals and amp cabinets but that's about it. What do you use yours for mostly? It's a good clean mic that I should use more often. What is the side address mic? Nice set up!

Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later

I've picked up a lot of good ideas from you Andy, so I think I'll pop into PMT Northampton and buy one.

That's the setup that I haven't quite got to put away from the recording of Driftwood :-) Was using the AKG as a second mike on the recording of my Brook Acoustic. The side address mike is my SE2200T (Tube mike) - which is what I use for vocals. The silver box on the shelf under the BR1600 is the power supply for the mike :-) I was experimenting :-) NB the AKG is on a desk clamp mike stand, which is really useful for limited space. Haven't really used the AKG as much as I thought I would, its been gathering dust in the wardrobe on the left for months, but it is a good clean mike. I bought it to record the acoustic, but often just use the SE on its own. 

One of the problems when recording is a) seeing and setting levels and b) stop and starting the recording button, when holding an acoustic guitar, and wearing cans - or is this just me :-)

No it's not just you.  I reckon I've put as many dings in guitars reaching across to buttons, phones, telephones etc as I did playing gigs!  Everything is always slightly out of reach no matter how much space there is.

What we really need is an engineer.  I wonder if Ron Nevison is free?  Or George Martin would do....
