2. Re: noisy 8020 mics - update

["vickipowys" vpowys]

Scott,

Looking again at the file, the pops occurred at 1 min 17 secs for one
mic, then 2 min 15 secs for the other, the pop lasting less than 1
second.  Not sure if I'd just powered up the SD702, or if it was
already on for a while before I started the recording.  Only happened
on one track out of a dozen or so.  A bit disconcerting though.
