Hi Mike, David et al.
I've wanted a decent sound recording setup for a while, but finding the bits of
equipment that work well together seems to be a pretty complex exercise.
Different recorders with charged or uncharged mics, amps, preamps, wind
baffles, booms, omnidirectional or directional mics - and that's just the gear
side of things, never mind the frequencies, decibels and the like on the
technical side.
What might help is if an expert like David could suggest a few kits that would
work well together (specifically for bird recording) at a couple of different
price points. A sort of dummies guide to sound recording equipment would make
it a bit more accessible to novices like me.
Cheers,
Stewart
