RAQ is awesome, all the shows dont sound nearly as good as the breakfast recording wise

[davepeck]

damn, i was hoping to listen to this on the way to albany tonight, but LMA is going slow as balls right now.

also, while i haven\'t heard it yet, i hope no one is judging any recordings by the sound of the stream and/or mp3s.

that said, if it truly does not sound good, you guys would get a kick out of how much $$$ a rig like that goes for.

Poor choice of words on my part... how about "I don\'t understand how RAQ is placed on the same tier as The Breakfast".  I don\'t want to start another marketing/management complaint thread because I don\'t have the information to do so intelligently/correctly, but it can\'t just be the music.

it\'s more than just managements responsibility to help spread the word and when you have dedicated fans helping, you can witness what happens......

Not to start with The Breakfast>Raq or whatever but BFAST echindas owns Raq\'s echindas. just sayin.
That being said, I\'m still waiting for the Raq/Bfast tour.

[leith]

where are RAQ constantly considered comparable or better than the Breakfast other than the Hyperfunkalicious board?

This show has some really good RAQ songs but suffers in the recording to me.

Without knowing jack about recording and whatnot, I agree.  I feel that the sound and/or recording quality doesn\'t give the show its due.  If this is par for the course for RAQ recordings, kudos to the Breakfast sound guys/tapers for consistently producing better quality than this.

Yeah it\'s not just their music and we\'ll leave it at that.

As for the taping quality I totally agree that as Breakfast fans we are very lucky to have a core group of really really good tapers that like this band and attempt to make sure most shows are recorded.

while the prices are probably a little on the high side (read: MSRP), yeah, you\'re on the right track.

the MK4 are the mic caps (cardioid). the CMC6 are the mic bodies, so you\'ll need 2 of those too. the KC5 are the active cables, which are run between the caps and the bodies (so rather than having entire mics up on a stand, you just have the caps). not sure exactly what the going rate is on the KC5\'s, but i\'d say between $1200 and $1500.
