tiny, awesome, stereo mic

i'm getting a few things together for the Chemlab/USSA tour (which starts in less than a month) and one of the things Jared and I talked about was having a recorder readily available for whenever. This minidisc (thanks Susan!) fit the bill but had no internal mic. I came across this one from Reactive Sounds. It's tiny, it's perfect, and I'm still having trouble figuring out how it kicks as much ass as it does.

recording is us (Dean and I)

comments (0)

A few months back, Dean and I were sitting at the Darkroom. Our good friend/booking agent/bar manager Arunas came by, said Hello, and told me if I ever wanted to record live bands at the Darkroom, he’d be cool with it. It was as though he was reading my mind.

I just thought it’d be cool. Give me some more experience with recording, live being the only area I haven’t thoroughly explored at this point. Then Dean and I started talking about the practical use of good live recordings for musicians. Then we started talking about how many indie bands there are in Chicago. And then we started talking about widgets and streaming audio and Sonic Bids and Myspace and all kinds of other garbage.

Long story short, we’re going to take a little minimal risk adventure in mobile recording starting this Sunday, where we will be checking out the Rode NT4 stereo mic to see if it fits the bill for room recording. Nothing fancy just yet, but this seems like a good idea as far as audio related services go and we'll expand upon it as time goes on.
