Go here... and turn it up really loud. wink.gifwave.gif

Seriously, it's super loud at NAMM. They actually have guys running around with handheld SPL meters who will tell people to turn down if they're over 85dB. The thing is, the entire hall sits at a constant 85dB, so there's a lot of interference and masking going on. If you want to record someone talking, or interview someone, you simply have to use handheld or lavalier microphones, or some sort of close-in mic (a boom, shotgun, etc.) in order to get decent audio. Trying to talk to someone on your cell phone or through your tablet camera & mic inside one of the halls is an exercise in futility.

The hall with the drums and brass is a straight-up nightmare. It's like Guitar Center after school lets out x100.
