Hi everybody,
I am frequently doing field recording for my electroacoustic music composit=
ions (acousmatic music). I usually borrow or rent a Tascam DA-P1, which I t=
hink gives a very good sound (not too crisp or clean/cold).
I am now thinking about buying a Minidisc which would be easy to carry and =
not costly (probably a used one).
I saw one with a line input the other day and tried to find the most inform=
ation about doing field recording with it.
Some of you probably use this kind of equipement, so:
- Is it true that it's better to use a battery pack for the mic and record =
trough the line input ? If so almost any low-cost Minidisc can be used ... =
?
- Knowing that some nature recordists have said that Minidisc should not be=
used for nature recordings (that even a cassette recorder would be better)=
, do you consider this kind of equipement being more gadget-type or being a=
low-cost solution ?
Thank you for your precious advices.
