FIELD RECORDING / Portable/Live Recording Tascam DR-1 or Zoom H4N?

« on: January 19, 2012, 07:03:27 am »

I'm in the market for a quality, multifunctional + creative mobile recorder, now what recommendations are out there guys? .. I do already own a mobile recording device, but i'm looking for something with a bit more edge, i've heard great things about the Zoom h4n and I know that Tascam are usually pretty reliable. So what advantages do each have over the other and what would be more useful in a live setting, or generally just for creativity? I wouldn't look to spend any more than the price of the Zoom which is around £249 $390 ...

thanks.

hi,

i'm currently looking at expanding my studio equipment and i've always considered getting some adam a7's for quite a few years but wanted to ask whether I should be considering the a5's at all? .. I guess my question is what am i losing or gaining by going with either.
any support with this topic would be ace . . . .

cheers.

ART / Polaroid 80 film? ..

« on: February 07, 2011, 05:43:06 am »

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone knows where you can get pinhole polaroid type 80 film from on the web? .. I've been offered this camera ...

http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~tobiko/Bilder/Polaroid%2520Pinhole/Polaroid.jpg&imgrefurl=http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~tobiko/polapinhole.html&h=598&w=800&sz=130&tbnid=2Oe_eSZM_PC8IM:&tbnh=107&tbnw=143&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dpolaroid%2Bpinhole%2B80&zoom=1&q=polaroid+pinhole+80&hl=en&usg=__3VyST2hcW5DfANrp8PungkysgsM=&sa=X&ei=bsxPTZW1I8m0hAfyj7HnDg&ved=0CE0Q9QEwCQ

 .... but there doesn't appear to be any film around to buy? ..
Pointless purchase if you can't get film

Hi,

This is a real cheeky one but would anybody be willing to listen over a few tracks of mine with a view to mastering (if needed) for an upcoming release. Its an EP four tracks but really don't have the funding to get a proper master done . . . if anyone knows anyone that would be willing to help I'm all ears.

Thanks,

« on: April 12, 2010, 02:11:07 pm »

Hey,

Anyone had much luck with this loop pedal http://www.bosscorp.co.jp/products/en/RC-20XL/ I'm looking to add to my collection (although I've only just started) but would love to hear any suggestions and thoughts on it. If I remember rightly Cameron Webb (Seaworthy) uses this looper but not 100% sure? ..

Cheers.
