Hi Folks,
I went ahead and bought a 60 gig iPod for use in the field after I watched Alvaro Jaramillo -fabulous tour leader- doing his thing in Guatemala this spring. At several times he was able to record and then in a few moments play the bird he had just recorded back to itself and often (not always) with excellent results.
I missed the micrphone he used and the device attched to the top appeared to be a Griffin iTalk. This was developed as a tool to allow iPod to become a recorder in business meetings etc. Who'da thunk!
Alvaro used a short shotgun type mike with mini plug. Anyhow.
I am interested in learning more about playback recording in the field etc.
My other tape decks are 2 Sony D Pro 10 II's and I am about to buy a Sound design 744T. I have an old Telinga parabola and a short shotgun Sennheiser MKH-416. New mikes are a must. Stereo and others.
I have a trip scheduled for Brazil and Ecuador this fall so if you have suggestions or other comments please let me know.
I'll be in the Arctic much of the summer so I'm sure lots will happen up here while I am gone...
