Hi Graywolf I looked it up on Ebay and it is a lovely piece from a famous brand . The price seems a little bit on the high side for a non flawless item for me nut that is true for a lot of international autction sales. Don't you have flea markets and second hand stores where you live where you getter even better deals?
I got a nearly unused Philips HiFi Recorder N2521 for $10 last year in perfect condition:-) http://www.radiomuseum.org/r/philips_hifi_cassettendeck_n2521.html greetings Markus -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of graywolf Sent: Sunday, February 18, 2007 3:22 AM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: OT. mikes and Mac's Ah ha! You will find you need a preamp for that mike. I tried with my Thinkpad and you only get good volume with the mic right up against your face. Preamps seem to run about $50, while you can get a "Behringer Xenyx 802" mixer board for $60 on the web. It has the preamps plus a bunch of other features built in. I am using a couple of Nady SP-4c mikes that were dirt cheap ($25 for the pair with shipping) from Amazon.com with cables. They are suprisingly robust, similar to the Shure SM58 for 1/10th the price. (However, I would rather have omni's for field use so if anyone has a couple of EV635A's or AT802's laying about they would like to sell cheap, please let me know) I will probably get the 1202 mixer for use with the laptop, and with my new old recorder. Which gives me the chance to mention (brag about) the latest addition to my retro-audio system. Yesterday the "Superscope by Marantz CD-330 Professional Portable Cassette Recorder" (I run out of breath just typing all that) I bought off eBay (item 110084712208) a couple of weeks ago finally arrived. Had a lot more issues than the seller mentioned, but I have it working about 80-90% now. A couple of more days and I hope I will have it working just about like new (or will have decided it is junk). --graywolf David J Brooks wrote: > I'll need to record a short demo for my proposed radio showsoon, and i > fiqure it would probably be done on the ibook and garage band and or > itunes which ever works best i suppose.:-) > > I'll just runn the musi from itunes, but what about a mike.
