Hey everyone,
I found this site doing some google usenet searching. Never knew there was such a huge community out there when it came to taping! I'm not much of a taper, but I figured you cats would be able to help out with my question.
I need a portable recording setup to do some sampling. I'll be recording everything from rain hitting a window to banging on pots and pans... stuff that will end up heavily edited and looped and layered into my music. I need 48V phantom power... I'll probably be doing most of the recording with a KM184 condenser. Mostly mono, although I may want to do some stereo work as well. And if I can get it all for around a grand, I'd be a happy camper
I've looked at some of the larger units (PDM-660, HD-P2), but I question the built-in preamps. If I'm going to get a seperate preamp, I'm guessing the microtrack or P-09 would be more cost-effective, but I don't even know where to start when it comes to portable preamps.
Just wondering if anyone else is using this type of setup and if you could point me in the right direction...
Thanks!
Paul
