Hello again to all. First post to the group after a 4 year absence!.
Anyway, here's the thing. I'm lucky enough !? to work for an audio mixer ma=
nufacturer and for sometime have been thinking about knocking up a 2 channe=
l recorder specifically aimed at nature recording for myself. So, I've sort=
of settled on the following spec. and was hoping the group could give it t=
he once over and make any suggestions re- omissions / alternatives etc.
thanks Rob.
