Iīm very conservative and boring in that respect, Iīm mostly recording straight to DAT, using a Tascam DA-30 (old faithful). I just donīt trust MD or other media that use memory cards for recording and playback. An MD is okay when it comes to ambient field recordings but I still believe thereīs a considerable loss in audio quality due to sample conversion algorithms. Itīs okay for certain things (like replacing your trusty old Wlakman while commuting to work on Londonīs tube) but as a basis to start producing oneīs own music from... I donīt know, this still gives me some serious headache.
