minidiscs:-
Sharp 702 = lousy mic-pre

Sony MZ-R35 =OK mic-pre with useful limiter (which can be bypassed)
to my ears it's the Atrac which limits the quality of this one , not the 
preamp.

DAT will give you better quality if cost (+media cost) no object.

but you might find the editing capabilities of MD very useful for your
purposes
