There&amp;#39;s a lot of value in that! A recording device that&amp;#39;s miles better than your phone, easy to set up, and easy to pull the recordings from. Is it worthy of doing actual recordings for your tracks? Dunno.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;img src="https://community.element14.com/aggbug?PostID=4060&amp;AppID=13&amp;AppType=Weblog&amp;ContentType=0" width="1" height="1"&gt;</description></item><item><title>RE: The Microphone of the Future - buy it or build it?</title><link>https://community.element14.com/technologies/test-and-measurement/b/blog/posts/the-microphone-of-the-future---buy-it-or-build-it</link><pubDate>Thu, 04 Jan 2018 09:51:48 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">93d5dcb4-84c2-446f-b2cb-99731719e767:39951fb1-e17d-445c-a619-db2e82f94921</guid><dc:creator>michaelkellett</dc:creator><slash:comments>1</slash:comments><description>&lt;p&gt;Happy new year to you Cabe, new year but not much change - this offering is not &amp;quot;high end&amp;quot;, and certainly not state of the art.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;They hype a good hype but there is no substance in the spec (eg. no distortion figure for the mic).&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It wastes money on mp4 compression - you can&amp;#39;t buy a high end mic amplifier for £499, let alone a complete recording system.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;It might be a handy all in one device but I&amp;#39;d bet you would do better with a Sennheiser C1000 S mic and a Tascam DR-70D recorder (about the same money for the pair )&amp;nbsp; but you get&amp;nbsp; a much more versatile microphone and a recorder that supports professional work.
