Re: Microphones

A device like the Zoom or Tascam is the best approach for everyday diagnostic recording ... not quite the quality of a good pair of Ribbons (or other microphone designs) with a good microphone pre-amplifier and A/D converter, but it too much bulk to deal with unless some serious recordings are the goal.

I keep a pair of AKG-214s and a Focusrite interface setup for my everyday recording ... and in a lively empty bedroom. But this is really more stuff than you need ...

The point about "manual control over record levels" is very important ... auto level systems pump and squish and don't do a good job ...
