at0m|c, thanks for the info. Now I think about it I understand what you mean.

garyb, I think your quote "cw never sez much about what they're up to" says it all. I mean they SHOULD tell us what they are up to. At least that way we know what to expect. For example if someone wanted to use GSIF 2 ...

I put my vote for GSIF 2 Drivers.

I will be buying GS3 as soon as it released! "GS2.5 96 > GS3 Ensemble $149". Is hard to pass up!

about mp3 encoder
hmm, i asume that mic in is mono
so 112 kb/s for mono signal ain't that bad
if 128 for stereo is near cd quality?

LOL. I love it when people think 128kb/s is "near" CD quailty. LOL... Let's just say 320kb/s is a little closer.

I have heard and read that Sharp make the best MD models for mic recording. And they have the most features for it.

Just to let you know, I'm looking at getting a Sharp IM-DR420 (~$230 USD) And most likely a Rode NT3 mic.

From what I've heard from people that know all about MD's is this, MD ...

I think I'm leaning toward a MD recorder becasue they are cheaper and in some ways better than an MP3 recorder. Only Wav/mp3 recorders with a mic-in are the iRiver HP100, HP120 ect.. range.. And they are very expensive.

So I think i'm going to hunt down a second hand MD recorder with a good mic-in ...

Thanks everyone for your help!

I have come to the conclusion that I really want something that can record in at least 16/44.1 .WAV or at worst 320kb MP3. Becasue I think it would make everything so much easier to record the sounds to a "file". Then it's just a simple dump onto the PC for editing ...

Thanks for the link Spirit.

I'm not a huge fan of MP3. However I do think 320kb/s MP3's are good.

*MP3Dictate* (from link)
MP3 Encoding (line-in): 32 – 256 Kb/s (Near CD Quality = 128 Kb/s)
MP3 Encoding (mic): 08 – 112 Kb/s

I know I said "cheap" but from a MIC to a MP3 at 112kb/s. At that ...

Thanks for your fast reply.

I must say that this system looks nice!

Can you explain what each thing does in normal terms. Mic2496 is a mic pre $499, I understand that. Do I then need a memory card to record onto? What is an iPAQ? Then do I need one of their mics?

Sorry, but there web page is very ...

I own a pair of Mackie HR824's. I still love them! I dont know why some people bash them. They are great value for the money. Given the choice again, I'd still buy them.

Don't forget some of the greatest albums in the world where mixed on NS10's. The fact is you should listen to your mix on a few ...
