wow...yeah after reading about all the problems with the JB3/MT/R-1 I think
I'm going to just keep on doing DAT for a while longer. I mean who needs the
hassle ! If it ain't broke don't fix it, right? I would think that in 6 months or so
they hopefully will have the kinks worked out on the MT? Or maybe not...
the internal battery thing still scares me. I don't understand why they can't
remake the D-8 or M-1 and have it record onto a CF card...with all the other inputs
preamps/ect.. the basicaly the same. Or even better make one the size of the old
Sharp 702 MD... That would be my dream setup... Mics with NO battery box >CF or Harddisc
recorder the size of a MD with a backlit remote that you can start rec and set levels.
Does anyone think they will make something like this in the next year?
thanks for all your thoughts!
BTW I'm so glad I found this fourm....thanks for all the info!
I"ve been steath taping since 1986... I just found a link showcasing my first recorder
a Sony W800 Dual tape deck (Yes Dual! it could hold two tapes in it...very cool for 86!)
