field recording equipment
Edirol R-1 - useful as a solid state MD recorder replacement - currently available for about US$400, it has plug-in power mic input socket, but not phantom power pro inputs…
…if you want those you need to go more upmarket
- like the Marantz PMD660 available down to US$499…
- or go all the way to the Nagra range - some of which are even becoming quite affordable! - such as the Ares M or Ares PII+.
M-Audio Microtrack is US$499 rrp
