I absolutely LOVE the warm, full sound from this mic -- much better than the EV 635a. It's metal, so it'll stand up to daily abuse. (Hard to beat the price on those Nadys though ;) A lower cost mic alternative is the Sennheiser e825s — 80 bucks at B&H (but out of stock at the moment).

It uses an SD card (we use a four gig) and the computer recognizes it just like a jump drive. It saves as .wav but can convert to .mp3 on the device itself. It has four built in mics that can record in several different configurations. Not to gush to much, but we really like the quality and flexibility for the $199 recorder. -aj Mindy,
