CD Manufacturing suggestions

Howdy,

I know some folks here advertise "complete packages" for recording/mixing/mastering as well as actually manufacturing finished CD's with album art, etc... I've never done this before, but now I've got orchestra and choir clients asking me to quote a price for a whole package like this, including the CD manufacturing (2000-4000 discs initially).

suggestions for a portable recorder

I'm thinking about hanging around recording sounds (animals, cars, noises, whatever) to try and play with them. And so i need a portable recorder... 2 tracks ought to be enough (mono or stereo miking), and needs to be plain simple to use.
I was thinking about a minidisc... any suggestions?

Mixer Suggestions

After the last post I figured I probably should just get a mixer with 8 mic/line inputs to record drums. Do you guys have any suggestions to which one I should get. I would like to keep the price range under $500 if possible. I was looking at older ramsa wr-133 mixers on ebay, any other I should look at.

P.s. this mixer will be plugged into the line inputs of my firebox

Does anybody have a recommendation for a good bi directional mic?

Some names that I have come across are
