I sat on top stair of "Section F", about four meters above ground level. So the mic was even higher than stage speakers, about same height as James' head.
I thínk either my mic has a defect or it is a fake, a replica worth $10.

Location, how were the mics clipped and aimed at?
Block F, 25 meter direct in front of center of the stage

Mic ( http://www.amazon.com/Audio-Technica-AT ... B0002GFMTQ )directed to center of the stage, free shot (no people between me and stage), mic clipped to a supporting frame fastened to my belt (my own construction).

I think that might be the problem. The mics need to be higher than the waist to get a clearer sound.

Amazon.com doesn't ship electronics overseas, and the AT822 is no longer available in Germany. I got mine from an Italian ebay store.
I contacted audio-technicas customer service today.
