I'm trying to decide what to get for live recording, of jams etc...want something small & easy to setup/carry.
anybody have any advice?
new Sony HIMD looks like a great idea, but they've hamstrung it because their proprietary format won't convert to .wav files...there is a guy working on a hack though, so maybe this will be a good option when the bugs are worked out?
also the old nomad jukebox 3 is a HD device that'll hold 20/40/60 gigs, running a replaceable laptop HD...but they don't make 'em anymore, and batteries/parts etc are hard to come by & will only get worse. the new nomad zen's don't have a line-in for recording AFAIK
is there anything else out there that is *small*, and doesn't need a big preamp etc, will just work with those mini-mics?
thx!
