Many thanks Raimund !
I had previously checked your website and it had alleviated some of
the horror stories that I had been hearing regarding the
unsuitability of these machines re-pre-amp noise.
The fact that someone of your experience and interests can endorse
them is testament enough for me and I will go ahead and get the
Tascam, which was the way I was going. The fact that you have had
positive experience of using them is also helpful. Over here in the
UK the Tascam is also a slightly better deal.
Many thanks for taking the time to reply and helping me in this
issue.
I look forward to posting some recordings of Scottish Crossbills
with this new gear !
Best wishes,
Lindsay
