Is that all? If you want a portable recorder, the TASCAM DR-680 is the
way to go. It's really well designed and works pretty sensibly. The
mic inputs sound good, there are six of them (two are on 1/4" TRS
jacks but they have phantom power and only need adapters for using
with standard mics), It has a stereo S/PDIF digital input and output
(plays the mix), a built-in mixer, automatic MS-to-L/R conversion,
either to the recording or just in the mixer (for monitoring). And
you can set it on a table and operate it.


Looks like a nice little recorder for $300 more. Doesn't seem as easy to
mount on a stand and use as a video dual system recorder. Oops - doesn't
have any built in mikes anyway.
