Back into taping after interruption.... gear question
« on: February 25, 2016, 04:24:17 PM »
so, title says it all, what is new?

I have an edirol r05, with CMC8 mics + bass roll-off. Do I need anything new... a new recorder I mean. What is best "quality-price" recorder?

Need your opinions please :-)

If it ain't broke it will still work. 

"Best" is subjective.  I had an R-05.  It was fine until it stopped working (the input connections came loose at the PCB and line-in started dropping out/not working).  They're still making them. 

I like the Sony PCM M-10 that replaced it more.  YMMV. 
Gear:
Audio:
Schoeps MK4V
Nak CM-100/CM-300 w/ CP-1's or CP-4's
SP-CMC-25
>
Oade C mod R-44  OR
Tinybox > Sony PCM-M10 (formerly Roland R-05) 
Video: Varied, with various outboard mics depending on the situation

I'd stick with what you have for now. It works and you can't improve on it without spending at least 2X. One thing I would do is not use that bass rolloff and also find software you like. Software is something that improves constantly and makes a pretty huge difference.

Um, here.  ;D   Seriously.  You can buy great gear for a fraction of the price, and the folks here won't screw you.  'Course, you have to prove you're trustworthy.  Learn the secret codes n@.

Yeah, the taperssection yard sale is where I always start.  Then if I have to go new, I go one of these places...

- I email justin marinoff at pro sound in NYC.  He serves ts members faithfully.  Search around here, you'll find his contact info  (pro sound is not to be confused with sound pros)
- Church Audio
- B&H photo and video
- Sweetwater
- Full Compass
- Musicians Friend
- Guitar Center

I've bought from all of these places and they all have alot of the same gear.  You just need to know what you want.  But for the small stealthy stuff, stick with Church Audio or sound pros.

Or contact Nick aka Schoepsnbox if you are ready to spend some coin and get a kickass Schoeps stealth rig.

By looking at his nickname, I'd hazard a guess that he's from Belgium. ;)

yeah, maybe they can send you a photo of Chupacabra  and Nessie with it.

meaning: coin is not necessary for great sound.
