hi guys,
i just looked at the nature recording group and realised theres a lot
of threads about my test.
sorry, i did not read all, but i saw that a often question is if i had
the gain on the 680 settetd to high and the trim to max.

to answer this in short: NO.
the 680 has the gain setted to HIGH. (otherwise its very very NOISY)
but the Trim is not touched. my mistake, sorry. its not robs fault.
thats the reason why the 680 was less saturated than the 702.

the long answer is, that i made this first test you heard where i did
not trim the gain cause i thought that the trim is just a digital trim.
(i thought that i have read this anywhere..)
rob infromed me that this is not the case. so i made a new test i
though i sended him one or two days after the first test.
well i did not. at least i can not find the email i could swear i have
sended him.
pittily these test files are not fully existence anymore, i deleted
the files from the 702.

however, never mind, i now made a new one, just an hour ago, and
sended it to rob.
4022 going into 680 and one 4022 going into the 702.
gain on the 702 MAXED.
gain on the 680 setted to High and trimmed MAX.
i can reveal here one thing, the 680 is louder.

sorry, i used the same clock, i don=B4t have another.
after some time i removed the clock, so you should hear later, if rob
provides this, a pure roomtone.

and in the test you all heared, there are two files cause i swapped
the mics to exclude that one mic sounds too different from the other..

hope this helps.

all the best
