I have been looking to supplement my shotgun with a hyper for interior shooting. I am recoring to a tascam dr-40 and mk-100. Half of my budget is going to purchace one of the 2 recorders and replacing my shock mounts with the rycote invision. I have been shooting super low budget training videos and a few web only projects. Enough to stop renting but not enough to warrant a 800 plus purchase at the moment. I'm not a big fan of lavaliers, so I'm trying to avoid that route. I am aware of the octava, but it seems to have a hit or miss quality. The at4053 has a great following also, but a bit beyond my budget. I have heard recommendations of the avantone ck-1 and at u873r, but there isn't much about them. I'm open to suggestions or other recommendations.
