Thanks for the commiseration. I think my biggest obstacle here (and why I am getting out of here asap) is the fact that they in fact do
not care about quality. All they want is some kind of tangible record of a concert to listen to once to and throw away. And I guess at that point it really doesn't matter if I'm using Schoeps or the built-in mics of an H4, and furthermore there really isn't a reason for me to charge $X if Joe the Plumber can do it for 10x less.
Anybody interested in a couple pairs of Schoeps?
