It's used for e.g. video production together with DSLR cameras (from what I read on the internet). Connecting proper mics and other stuff to a phone or tablet feels clunky IMO. | |

| Aug 6, 2019 at 11:12 | comment | added | Tim | I still take my faithful Minidisc for recording the few rehearsals I play at. 320 mins on a disc. Can't fault it - and it also records who said what about something! But it seems like OP wants to re-mix songs later. Need separate tracks for that. But that's not rehearsal - it's recording time. Very different approach. +1. | |
