Woops, I hit send by accident before I was done... I was thinking of simply capturing the raw audio from the four channels, and then have the rest be software... ...anyway, I haven't placed any bids yet, and if the piece can go to where it's publicly accessible and can claim its proper spot in recording history, then that's a good reason to bow out. What I'd hate to see, though, is it being bought up by someone who simply ends up dismantling the kit and using it as drum mics or something like that...
