Evenin' all. I'm looking to do some live recording on my next trip to the World and was wondering what equipment you people would recommend. My current setup is a Song MZ-NF810 MiniDisc player with a ECM-MS907 mic.
Since it's been several years since I bought any equipment, I figured it may be time to move on to a mp3 player with line-in to use for my recording. However, I'm planning on doing some longer length recordings (30-40 minutes at least), and I didn't know what players could handle that sort of length while still having decent quality.
Would I need a new mic as well? I see that many of you use binaural mics, so perhaps that's the way to go. However, sometimes when I'll be recording I'll probably be in one place for a while, so a one-point mic may not be too bad. If that's the case I could probably use what I already have.
Sorry for the questions, but considering the quality recordings that have been posted on this site I figured you guys would know some of the the best ways to do in-the-field recordings. Thanks a lot for the assistance.
