howdy, i'm thinking of picking up an mdlp portable recorder. i was wondering what experiences y'all have had using these for live recording. i'd do this kind of recording in sp mostly, but i'd like to have the option of lp2 in case i need to squeeze a little more onto the disc, or for things where i won't be able to change the disc for a long time. plus i'd like the lp2 for dubs from cd &c. how good are the mic preamps in the sony r900 & the sharp mt77? i've heard sharp usually has done a better job in this area & my old 702 still sounds quite good. (i'm not trying to start a flame war, i just want specific information on these units.) has anyone done side-by-side comparisons of the analog phases of these recorders? thanks peter ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
