Hi,
I want to record FM -> D8 dat from a Sony cd/fm walkman. The walkman has a line out but the sound quality is not as good as the headphone jack. Signal boost question....should I boost the signal mostly from the walkman, boost the signal mostly on the dat, or do a 50/50 signal boost split?
Going walkman to dat do i use just an everyday standard cable with 2 male ends or are there high quality ones? If there are high quality are they shielded? The reason why i ask this question is that lots of the portable players use the headphones or cable as an antenna.
Can I use a longer than needed cable between walkman to D8 and attach this to a mic stand for reception? If so, would this "antenna" affect a rig in any way thats attached to the stand?
