I have a show to bootleg this weekend, and I am totally new at recording. I was referred to this site from the bands message board, where I was told:
"Pick up a recorder like the Tascam DR-05 - it's under $80 at Amazon. This recorder has built in mics, but I would definitely recommend getting some external mics along with a battery box/pre-amp."
I posted in this section of the forum because it looks like I need a recorder, external mics, and a battery box/ pre amp.
Would anyone here be able to give me quick advice on what items to purchase, and if I can pick them up at a store such a best buy, guitar world, or some place like that...I was wondering if I would be able to use the equipment to record a show and return it to the store the next day.
I see you have some guides for newbies but unfortunately I do not have much time!
Any advice is greatly appreciated. Thank you!
