Hi James-- Students here have been hiding a $170 Sony 910 HiMD
recorder on each performer with $60 stereo lavaliere mics-- either
both mics for the voice or one for "off-mic" effects. For long
shoots, they record in HiSP record mode (7+ hours on one $6 disk) and
let it roll continuously and sync up the converted 44_1-> 48K .wav
files in post in FCP. HiMD speed variation and quality is comparable
to DAT. Rob D.
