No battery no preamp necessary -- it?s a dynamic microphone. It will
work with any recorder cassette, minidisk, plextalk -- it does not care.
I get excellent recordings with it just plugged straight into the
microphone input of all of my plextalks. Still if you want extreme
sensativity and a better frequency response you could ask your sales
person to recommend a good omni condenser that will run from an
internal battery rather than looking to the recorder for its phantom
power. I would not recommend the use of a preamp because you would get
the gain but not the frequency response increase.

Hi Frank
Thanx I will look into that. Interesting that one kind of microphone
could
have been around for such a long time.
You'll probably have to use a preamp on this one though?

Andre,
I actually do not know of an omni directional condenser microphone
although
I am sure they exist. The industry standard omni dynamic is the
electro
voice 635A. It is very sturdy and has reasonable fidelity for voice.
It
has been arounde for about 50 years and many of the great live
recordings
from the early 60's were recorded with this microphone or its
directional
brother the electro voice RE15. I have been buying the 635A on ebay
for
about $60 although they still sell new in the box for over $100.

Hi all
I sometimes find it necessary to record meetings in halls and such
places.
I know that for this reason you can simply sit in the audience with your
ptr2 and record through the internal microphone. But should you wish to
use
an external omnidirectional microphone, can anyone perhaps recommend a
good
external omnidirectional microphone for this purpose? I am speaking of
a
situation where you will not be able to use e.g. a boundary microphone
with
an external mains phantom power supply.
