ive never had / owned / used a minidisk player.
yet many people seem to record with it.
what are the benefits, how do you guys like it, is there much better?
and while on the subject, i haven't had time to do very much research on binaural mics...anyone want to 'break-it-down' ?

don't bother mate. minidisk sounds like shit. the cleanest sound you'll get is making up your own. you can pretty much create anything you want in reaktor, a much better investment.

this isn't about making music, just recording.
whether from a live show or just everyday environmental noise.
just curious, especially about binaural mics

the benefits...portable recording device with 16-24bit depth resolution.
no magnetic tapers or shit to carry with you,only a small box.
u also might want to keep ur eye on the frequency range of certain models.
that's pretty much about it...the rest is on you and the mics.

From wikipedia (I read about this the other day):
"A typical binaural recording unit has two high fidelity microphones mounted in a dummy head, inset in ear shaped molds to fully capture all of the audio frequency adjustments (known as Head Related Transfer Functions in the psychoacoustic research community) that happen naturally as sound wraps around the human head and is "shaped" by the form of the outer and inner ear."
dingle berry on here was saying that he had one of the dummy head things. They are well expensive though, I think. Another way of doing it is with a pair of in-ear microphones which you would wear and record to a minidisc or something.

Minidiscs are very lovely. I usually only use dictaphone or portable cassette players with crappy mics, but that's because I'm an idiot.
