I've got the nocturnal passive recording bug and want to leave my recorder (Tascam DR-05) out in the field at some remote places locally.
I'm worried about exposure to the elements so I intend to seal it in a sandwich box type container with a power bank and dessicant pack.
The problem is making an effective seal around the built in microphones is tricky and I need to be able to access the recorder easily - plus I'm not sure how weatherproof they may be.
The simple solution seems to be an external microphone but I don't want a shotgun mic or need anything stereo. I'm thinking of something like this in the bottom corner of the photo - but don't know who makes it.
Any suggestions would be most welcome :t:
