Thanks Wilbur,
Four inputs more than enough for now. I like recording water but am always
missing that low frequency character, always high end frizzle. Could be
technique or the mics so I won't fault my R05 just yet.

I have the MixPre-6 and the latest firmware, 3.03, is fine. It is far
superior to the Zoom recorders for one simple fact, the channels can be
linked as a stereo pair. This allows one channels gain to act as a master
gain for both channels and the other to act as an offset. So, when using a
single microphone, as in a parabola, one gain knob is the master gain and
the other can be used to offset to the gain of the second channel to create
a safety that is 10dB lower than the first channel =E2=80=93 incase of loud
transients. There is no way to do this with the Zoom F4, F8, or F8n. You
have to ride both gain controls at the same time, which is impossible if
your are recording birds in the field with a parabola.
I also like the sound of the pre-amps in the MixPre series when compared to
the Zoom F series. There is more presence in the lower frequencies with the
MixPre.

wonder how tried and tested the Mix Pre 3 might be.
