I have a couple questions about the equipment Rob referred to in this
thread.
Regarding the Rolls PB224, how long will it last (with a pair of
NT1-As for instance) on two 9volt batteries?
And the Studio Projects C-4 microphones: has anyone out there tried
them for nature recording? If so, any opinions to share?
