Hello folks,
I'm new to your forum - it looks like a good one to explore. I'm interested in stealth taping and I can't spend a ton of money. The bic pen microphones (SP-P sounded better than the other similar mics. I like how the high-mids are warmer and present in the pink floyd sample at their website. Although, When I ran sound for my wife's band, I was forever accused of cutting out too many high-mids. That is where music can get real ugly real fast. Any way, Has anyone used these mics, any thoughts. $70 bucks seems like a fair price if its a good mic. I would get the battery pack with in-line volume control, I think. I haven't purchased a recorder yet. Is there a consensus on the pick of the litter> The Edirol 09, if it is what it says it is, would also be fair price. Bob is in town in a few weeks and I have a seat in row 35. Who Knows? I look forward to exploring your archives here. Thanks

Bic pen mics? Well I don't think I would want to use a pen mic to record concerts. I would rather use a set of stealth cardioids or omni mics depending on where you were recording, and what you were recording. Do you have a picture of this mic? or a link so I can look at it.

This is not a stealth recording forum... Be careful, there is a certain moderator here that will split your nuts off the side of your head....
