Hello all, 
 
I am looking for voluteers to be part of my MA Dissertation project from the north west of England. Respondents would nedd to be willing to give away a vinyl copy of a record they no longer want, partake in an oral history interview, and have some photos taken of their collection in their homes. 
 
The thesis title is "Scratching the Surface - Cleaning the dust off vinyl memory: Recontextualising the lost sonorities of forgotten records."
 
Anyone interested please contact either via this e-mail or phone Paul on 07734107289.
 
Thanks Paul Nataraj

Can anyone give recommendations for hand-held recording devices?  My  
main consideration is money, I don't want to spend much... I'm  
looking for built-in stereo mics relatively good for a wide variety  
of field recording applications, inside or out, noisy or quiet,  
closeup or ambient noise.  Any low-end equipment out there that's  
worth a darn?

Zoom H2. Less expensive than the H4, but it has four mics, so it can
do some interesting surround-type recordings. It can also be used as a
USB audio interface in a pinch...

Cheers,
ernie

I have one of those and am overall pretty happy. Considering there's a 
new version now you might find the previous one second hand pretty cheap.

This is the best quickstart overview I found while recently shoping for a
mobile recorder myself:
http://www.theatreofnoise.com/2009/11/summary-of-portable-digital-audio.html

I settled on the Sony PCM M10 with the Olympus L10/11 devices coming in second
place for me.  Here are the first quick recordings I did with the Sony inn the
"field":

I have recently bought the sony pcm m10 and would definitely recommend it. Most anything will be good, but the sony is very quiet and has great battery life. Handling noise is low as well and I just shove it inside a rycote windjammer and wander about recording. Couldn't be easier.

Can anyone give recommendations for hand-held recording devices?  My main consideration is money, I don't want to spend much... I'm looking for built-in stereo mics relatively good for a wide variety of field recording applications, inside or out, noisy or quiet, closeup or ambient noise.  Any low-end equipment out there that's worth a darn?

my two cents: I'd buy a Zoom H2. the four mics (90? / 120? / quad /  
quad-to-stereo) allow for a great range of uses (including interview- 
like situations where you want a clear recording your voice/instrument/ 
noise and that of a person facing you).

i originally had a H4, and found the noise floor much too high for the  
thing to be of any use in field recording. however, judging from the  
positiv reaction the device has got from other people, it might just  
be a matter of personal taste or perception.

I'd go for the H2. it even costs less than the H4 (haven't checked  
right now, though).

hope this is of any help.

I use the marantz pmd 620 it is amazing. I don't know if it fits the "low
end" but you won't be disappointed with the quality.
