Title: Newbie wondering which unit to buy
Post by: darkstar63 on February 26, 2006, 11:30:18 PM

Newbie here, wondering what equipment to buy. Here's the thing: unfortuantely, I live around 300 miles from the nearest large music venue (Northern Minnesota), will probably only tape a couple festivals and a few other shows, i.e., Jamcruise, Dead New Years, etc. per year, plus bands that play at my live music venue (restaurant/bar). I do have a Roland 4-track to record at my place, so my question is generally aimed at the " Portability " aspect. I go to shows with my wife and 9-year old son, so the taping is more of a casual thing for me, since taking in, spacing out, and enjoying the few shows I am able to see each year is of utmost importance. I've read a lot about the R-09 and am  quite intrigued with the compact size and stealth-ability and ease of use. I can wait a month or two, until it becomes available. I guess I'll have to find next weeks' 'Railroad Earth' show on a taper's/traders site. Oh yeah, any leads on a decent trader site? Thanks, and peace, Jeff
