Wouldn't a pair of NGT-1's work great for a stereo setup.l

Stereo setups with shotgun microphones can be a bit trickier than with some wider pickup microphones, but you could record a mono shotgun and pan it (to both the left and right channel with a balance you like) in post.

For some situations, you might look at the The Rode NT1-A http://www.adorama.com​/RDNT1A.html which has a good budget reputation. I believe Rode has replaced or complimented it with the NT1 http://www.bhphotovide​o.com …d_cardioid_cond​enser.html You might also consider one of these two (Rode also carries a matched pair of the NT!-A) microphones as another tool to have access to.

this is gonna get expensive lol

How about a couple of http://www.bhphotovide​o.com …H_8070_MKH_8070​_Long.html

Keep in mind that while the microphones I have mentioned are good microphones for the prices, microphones, just like lenses, can get a lot more expensive for really good ones.

Tascam DR-60D 4-Channel Linear PCM Recorder (normally $320 to $350)

and

(free) Red Giant PluralEyes 3 Audio/Video Sync Software (normally $180)

at B&H for $199.99 http://www.bhphotovide​o.com …_ch_track_linea​r_pcm.html

The Tascam DR-60D recorder is usually $320 to $350, so $199.99 is a great deal, but B&H is also including PluralEyes 3 for free at the $199.99 price. Amazon has the recorder for $199.99, but is not including the software.

The offer is still valid.

Somebody said on the 1st page they had a code to enter. Not sure if it's still valid but I absolutely see NO place to enter a damn code anyway

I'm ready to buy now.

I'm also not sure if it's still valid at this point, but the code, if it still takes it, needs to be entered at the check out point. If it doesn't show up at that point, then I'd have to think it's no longer valid.

Apparently they don't have places to enter promo codes. I called and they told me to just click on the link on the email where it quotes the price. I told them that I never got any email, I just saw the deal on a message board. The guy on the phone still hooked me up and I got it for $185 or whatever it was.

One reason signing up for their newsletter or email list is a good idea. I often get alerted for such bonus savings that are not advertised elsewhere.

I purchased my third Tascam several months ago just to get the free PluralEye 3, then sold the unneeded Tascam on Craigslist. PluralEye 3 was worth the trouble.

BH had it last week drop down to 179.99 so I bought it. I had the DR-40 which I paid $140 for it and sold it and got 132 in my pocket. I then sold the plural eyes for $75 so I got the 60D for same cost me for the DR40.

Only problem is I need some mic's now.

Interesting that one of you wanted PluralEyes and the other wanted the Tascam.

Talley, if you sold PluralEyes to a friend, you might mention the below:

I already have two excellent Tascam recorders so didn't need a third.

I knew you had each made good use of the specials. I found it interesting that you made use of opposite sides of the deals.

Talley, what type of microphones are you looking for?

I don't think anyone else has created a thread on this deal. The Tascam DR-60D recorder is usually $320 to $350, so $199.99 is a great deal, but B&H is also including PluralEyes 3 for free at the $199.99 price. Amazon has the recorder for $199.99, but is not including the software.

Make that $195 at this moment.
