How about what you have? Should be cheap enough, maybe need a longer
cable if you don't have one. Remember, a shotgun mic was originally
designed for recording actor's voices on a set. The directionality cut
out some of the other noise of the set. Stick a long cable on the mic,
place it a little ways away, and pointed so it does not pick up the fan
on the projector too bad. And relax in front of it and have at it.
Once that's done you can really get carried away and make multimedia
CD's of it all. My father has been doing that with his collection for
all of us for when he's gone.
