It may not seem very rock’n'roll, but anyone regularly attending live gigs should think about some kind of ear protection, especially if their musical tipple leans towards the ‘eavy metal end of the scale.

There’s all manner of preposterous bolt ons available for iPhones, but we have to say that we’re rather taken with Tascam’s iM2 microphone for iOS devices.

Looking rugged and tough enough to survive gruelling field trips and repeated trips into the mosh pit is Olympus’s new LS-20 Linear PCM digital recorder recorder, offering HD movie recording and “recording studio sound quality.”

With a hugely competitive price to tempt amateur bloggers, struggling musos, journos and even those odd people who like to go around recording random things, the Zoom H1 offers professional quality audio recordings for under 90 quid ($99 in US).
