In your experience, what works best for field recordings? I did some awhile back on a digital recording device, but it sounded too muffled. Wasn't what I was going for.

Peterson

Sony handheld tape recorder/player. A digital device, even a good enough cell phone, will work if you EQ the recording when transferring it to tape. Placement of recording device is everything.

Andrew McIntosh

Depends on what you want. I've used a digital video camera, a basic tape recorder and the Zoom H1, all to different effect. Personally I prefer whatever's smallest and easiest.

I have posted some little example of the new Koma Field System, which I gladly crowdfunded.

Tis is just a starter, but it is pretty complete

will post video after the week end

devastating.
nice patterns, crude sound, often completely loose control, but once tamed is a beast.
it is a bit pricey, but I got it with promo price and it is money well spent

I am getting also the small version for bass

Thanks!
it was just an out-of-the-box test, but the extended version will be used as backing track for next C031.
Love to work with the servomotor, so It won't be as akward as using vibrators as I have been doing for the past few years.

I'm not sure I get everything it can do since it seems to be a device whose functions only make sense once you start experimenting with them but it sure looks and seem killer.

In all seriousness, haha, you mean...vibrator as in...?

Is the reverb natural (not including the echo) in the 3rd recording?
