The search function is not working for me, so I have to start a new thread.
I have not yet received my LS-P4, but today I bid on a ME 66/K6P combo on a well-known auction website and manged to get them, and a foam windscreen, for around $150. Now, I need to swing into action fast and buy a female XLR to 3.5mm connector (3 feet long? 6 feet long, so I can put the recorder in a pocket?), I think.
I could use some advice on which XLR to 3.5mm connector would be a good value (hopefully on Amazon or someplace where there are values to be had), and also could use advice on how to attach the LS-P4 to the mic. Is it OK to buy a connector with a plastic XLR connector socket, rather than the metal ones?
I have been reading the threads here, wherein people mention using elastic bands to attach a recorder to the mic. Which bands do you use? Is there something that works very well to keep the recorder attached to the mic without damaging either, and without the recorder possibly falling off? Or, would it be better for me to keep the recorder in a pocket and extend a six-foot connection cord to the mic in my hand?
I appreciate the assistance - any advice you can provide will be greatly appreciated.
