ABSTRACT
It is impossible to provide a definitive list of mics that constitute a ‘working’ kit for a recordist. Much depends on the type of work you're engaged on, and/or the equipment provided by your employer. Nevertheless, as a bare minimum, I would expect a recordist to have one gun mic, one dynamic reporter's (stick) mic, two clip mics, and a radio clip mic (which may be provided instead of one of the line-fed clip mics).
