I beg to differ, based on my eary field recording experiences with
simple Sony mono cassette recorders in the late 60s. The microphone
quality makes much more difference to the quality of the result than
anything else. If you can afford it, an expensive mike with a cheap
cassette recorder will make much better recordings than a cheap mike
with a cheap cassette recorder.
The pro windscreen runs the cost up a lot, but you can build your own.
