Many thanks for all of you who gave me advice how to start recording
grasshoppers and bush crickets.

Rich Peet suggests laptop recording. Yes, I could start recording with a
laptop. I think I don't have to carry my recording equipment a lot, so I
don't need greatest portability. Used laptops are not expensive, but what
kind of soundcard is needed for high quality recording? Are those expensive=

for laptops? I suppose a soundcard with mic-in is needed?

I found out that Creative has external USB soundcard (
http://www.soundblaster.com/products/extigy/ ) with reasonable price (less=

than USD150). But it is probably too much to carry and not a simple system=

if I have a laptop, an external soundcard and a microphone.

Best wishes,
Sami Karjalainen
