As a music student at Newcastle University, you have access to a wide range high-quality microphones and recording equipment. While these are mostly intended for use in the recording studio or live performance, we also have a range of battery-powered recording devices which enable you to record outdoors. These range from handheld devices with built-in microphones like the Zoom H1n<\/a>, right up to the Zoom F8<\/a>, which has 8 XLR inputs for recording with whichever mics you choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These devices are largely intended for applications such as field recording, film audio, documenting interviews etc., but in this post we will look at a setup that can be used to make a high quality recording of instruments and vocals, without needing to be near any plug sockets! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
