Very nice videos, full of information. Can I ask you a question? Which one would you recommend between the PMD661 and a Tascam DR-100? I can’t seem to find any information on their preamps. Which one would you say “sounds best”?

Thanks, big fan of your work as well.

Nice presentation and great review!
Which handheld microphone would you recommend for on location interviews?
Best regards,
