Hi,

With a Nightingale singing locally, I dusted off my venerable Atherstone re=
flector which I use with a Sony f-V610 microphone and an inline felmicamps =
preamp.

A few years back I used minidisc but now have an Olympus LS-10 recorder. Ca=
n anyone recommend a better microphone for such a set-up as I was somewhat =
disappointed by the quality of the recordings made with the dish. Luckily t=
he bird flew over and sat in the tree under which I was hiding so I got a g=
ood recording just using the built-in mics!

I have looked at the Sennheiser range but as I am only an occasional record=
ist I would prefer a less expensive alternative, albeit you get what you pa=
y for.

Any ideas would be most welcome.

Clive
