Topic: Hi new here-Taping questions

[splumer]

My old hosemate's girlfriend tops you all.  Neil Young at the Cow Palace in 1986 or 1987.  PCM F-1, SL2000 Betamax and 3 Nicad batteries under her skirt.  Granted, she was not a size 2.

I'm not sure I'd be so proud to tell everyone I went there...  But I guess fat chicks need love too...

My wife was um... not exactly skinny, and we always hid my stealth rig (not that I stealthed much) and a camera in her ample bosom. For better or for worse, she had gastric bypass surgery and lost a lot of weight. Now she can't hide rigs the way she used to.

But yeah, I'd love her if she was 1000 or 100 pounds.

The preamp and mic on the tascam are good enough for me. I shouldve realized this would be a taboo subject. My apologies.

That being said, if the mystery spot is the groin area then great. I was thinking about hiding it in my shoe, but that would be very uncomfortable to say the least.

Hide a Tascam DR100 MK2 in your SHOE? What - you wear a size 25W?     I have one of those and they're uh.. kind of big.

There are actually some benefits of living in Moscow (where I live). Unlike the USA security don't really know about all these recorders. If I am getting searched I always pretend that my sony pcm-m10 is some kind of an audiophile player. If I would hide something in my shoe they may automatically think that it's something prohibited, maybe even a bomb    Just joking, this is not Israel. 

Tascam dr-100 mkii does not seem like the best choice for st3@lthing to me. Like some people said: with Zoom h2 you can pretend like you're shaving, with olympus - talking on a phone, with Zoom H-1 - blowing bubbles.  But dr-100 looks like really serious professional machine

Now that's funny! 
I think the best bet for a low profile recorder now is the Tascam DR-2D. There are smaller ones but this seems to be the best bang for the buck on the small end of things.

The rea; key to success are external mics.

Did you manage to record the gig?
Satisfied with the result?

I'm wondering the same And what made you buy a dr100?

I'm also new to taping. I bought a Sony PCM-M10. No mics yet, my aim is to be very 'stealth'.
When I just had the device I had one lucky shot with the internal mics, a amplified concert (70's hardrock) and is sounded very decent. Guess that was my one in a million proper amplified concert recording with internal mics though. The concerts after that sound pretty distorded, and not much fun to listen.

It might have been asked before, but what mics can be used without a battery box at amplified concerts?

Buy a battery box.  Seriously.  A CA-UBB or Sound Pros model will add very little bulk to your rig, and your recordings will be better as a result.

It's no trouble at all to stealth with a small battery box.  If you can't envisage it, send me a PM and I'll explain further.

Can't you use the plug in power on the m10 for some 853's?
