I have a recording rig that, sadly it seems, is based around a Sony NETMD Walkman. I have used this thing for about 1 1/2 years now, and never have had any major problems with the sound.
I know all of the tech heads around here are going to be all like, "My god, what is he doing?," but I am still in high school, and haven't the money for any kind of DAT or digital based recording rig.
Right now, I have my Nakimachi mics running into a Rat Shack 4 channel mixer (powered by 9volt battery) and straight into my MD's analog in.
So my question is:
How can I improve my rig? Is there any special way to make Minidiscs sound better? Do you have to compensate with better placement? Or Mics?
Also, what about my mixer. Is that really helping out things right now?
Any help will be so greatly appreciated. As you can see, I am a definite newbie, and thought I would turn to the "professionals" here at Taperssection.com!
Thanks alot!
