Re: portable recorder advice...
If you are intending to re-use and/or master your material, I strongly
suggest using uncompressed audio and not a mini-disc. the ATRAC
encoding that's used in MD is very smart and careful to try to only
remove information that's not audible -- but if you for example apply
EQ to your track after encoding you might find some pretty dreadful
artefacts.
