Topic: Lute live recording

[lucachia]

Hallo, my name is Luca Chiavinato and I'm an Italian professional Lute Player...

Excuseme for my terrible english 

I would like to buy a new portable stereo recorder for lute solo and duo (lute & violin) concerts live professional recording and good home studio recording.

Now I have a Zoom H4n, two Neumann Km184 and Cables Reference studio, but the Zoom's Pre-microphone and a/d converter are not really professional and I would like to find something more.

I'm looking this 3 models:

Tascam Hd-p2
Fostex Fr2-LE
Korg r1000 (but I'm not sure about this because I don't know nothing about the dsd system)

I would like to find good a/d converter and pre-microphone... what do you think about them? Are good for classical music live recording?

Thank you very much

The simplest would be the FR-2LE.  That has a decent, low-noise preamp.  It is also very simple to run of both batteries and AC power.


You could do (a bit) better by getting a better preamp, but this would be a great starting point.


Welcome to recording.  You will be very happy to have copies of your jams/works-in-progress, both for your own reference, and to give to friends and fans.
