[8salacious9]

Hi,

Im going to purchase the tascam dr-40, but iv yet to know what mic to purchase with it, it should be used as a boom mic?

thanks

it has 1/4" & XLR inputs and phantom power so it will work with almost any mic. I personally think the RODE NTG1 is the best shotgun boom mic for the money. I have this mic and it is well worth the $250.

I have the DR-40 and the AT875R myself. No complaints.
