sorry, my english is not the best, so i have to ask: with single point
miking techniques, you mean those things like the soundfield mic?
if so, i have to say that i don=B4t like those mics so much.
first those mics have a terrible self noise, and second you just have
intensity stereophony and no time of arrival stereophony, which is
specially great for multichannel recordings i think..

so the sonic 61 seems to be the cheapest. but also its not very
flexible.
the a-ray is very flixible, but it costs a lot more..

anyone here in multichannel recording?


i=B4m planning to buy the dr-680 ftom tascam, and maybe if the pre amps =

are so much better, the sd522 as a mixer.
i think i should get the same quality with that setup like with a
sd788 machine.. (a more complicated set up, but the same quality in
sound i hope.)
but thats another thread i will start when i have tested the dr680,
compared to my sd702..
