mic? check.

I finally bought an ElectroVoice RE50B. Omnidirectional, dynamic, and apparently (according to everyone I've talked to) a really good all-purpose mic. I might have to get another kind for backup and to handle the various situations in which I'll be recording, but you won't believe how much better I feel to have checked this off my list. Oh, and I tried the POGO printer and am so excited to use it in Malawi!

  1. By all accounts a good choice, Kathryn. I chose the Azden SGM-1X which is a condenser shotgun mic (~$165) with a Pearstone impedance matching transformer (~$20). Sounds great with my Olympus LS-10. I look forward to following your adventures in Malawi (and wherever).

  2. I love picturing you literally checking it off your list :) You're the cutest.
    Did you check out the Story Corps website by any chance? They apparently have great tips for people looking to learn about recording good, clear interviews.
