you'd be surprised how many pro studios get away with a cheap yamaha sets.  . the only two i've ever worked in.  .  . but most of the more well known bands have their gear situation on lockdown.
just for the record. . i want to say that Oz is such a cool guy. He proved to us that not only does he know his stuff about recording, but he is superb at dealing with people. he turned, what could have been a flamefest, into a friendly chat. cheers. i commend that alone, and i am very interested in hearing MK's work, as well but there isn't a tower or best buy near my house. only sam goody.
