Anyhow, start to record and you will love this processor even more.

I'd love to give this a go... I just need something worth recording!

I have a good FM antenna on my roof and a half-decent tuner in the guise of a Rotel RHT-10, but I don't think the FM in the UK is up to much - it's all NICAM stereo - though I do like a lot of what BBC Radio 3 puts out live.

My turntable? Well, a Technics SP-10 on a wall-mounted solid metal plinth with 3009 S2 (pre-improved) and a trusty old 103 - perfect for playing the badly-scratched LPs of my student days, but perhaps not up to much else.

Another option is to buy an open-reel machine. But I suspect that sourcing interesting material would be difficult.

The final option is recording live. And this is the one I'll probably pursue. My own musical skills are totally dire, but I know a few amateur musicians who I might be able to start off with.

If I go for the last one, do you (or anyone else) have any ideas on good value-for-money mics and pres that I could plug straight into the Model Two?

Mani.
