I think the consensus opinion here is that you can get started with a
mididisc recorder and a microphone. What I would like to hear is a
gallery of similar recordings that showcase the audible differences
between a cheap setup and the more expensive setups.
Simply listening to an expert's recordings does not allow you to guess
whether the higher audio quality is due to the expert's 1. recording
technique, 2. $$$ equipment, or 3. post-processing.
