I need some advice... I'm stuck LOL
ok, i've got a bunch of MD and DAT shows i need to digitally transfer to my PC, BUT i'm thinking of buying more gear soley to do this.
Here's my old rig (stealth):
Sound Pros sp-bmc cards (worn in my hat)
old school sound pros bass roll off (looks like it was made in shop class... bout the size of the 9v battery)
Sony MZ-N1 minidisc (netMD)
Sony PCM-M1 (got this towards the end of my taping peak)
Here's what I'm thinking of getting to transfer masters to PC, but i don't think i really want this stuff:
Sony MZ-RH1 (Hi-MD) just to do the digital transfer of my old LP2 MD shows
7-pin cable just to get the DAT shows
what i'd really like to do is replace my rig and sell my old stuff to someone starting out. for a recorder i want to get something that records at least 3 hours of uncompressed audio in high quality... and be able to easily get digital transfers to/from the PC. that RH1 could fit the bill, but for some reason i crave HD/flash/new technology. definately want to upgrade my mics to something in the $300 range (ES933/43 maybe). however, i'd also like to get some nice mics that i could use for stealth or to record my own music at home. which makes me think about going all out and getting shoeps/nauman or that caliber
sorry if this is hard to follow.. i've edited it about 3423 times and i'm pretty confused as i analyze the hell out of my situation lol
plus its late :p
first post
ps - i wish i'd known about this place when i built my rig back in 2002
