Thanks Flawn. That answers my question about using either the K6 OR the iR=
IG for Phantom power but not both. I'll see which provides best audio and =
which eats battery less.
The only 'loud' songs I'm recording - whether I want to or not - are our lo=
cal, nesting robins, cardinals, house wren and carolina wren! They end up =
as a 'voices' on ALL my recordings so far. ;-)
I'm hoping the ME66 will at least help that situation.
