Peter,
Sorry for the delay in getting back to you. I think you are going the right direction with the Juicedlink, it plays very well with Magic Lantern and pretty much any decent mic. If you want to add a separate recorder later then it will really help there too, in fact I've just been running some tests with the Juicedlink feeding my Sony PCM-D50 instead of the camera and the results are very good indeed, basically the best I can get, clean phantom power with XLRs, great preamps, and the dynamic clipping function of the Sony recorder and proper knobs instead of push buttons like the Zoom.
One other trick for the future, If you only recording mono then a radio mic linking a 5DmkII running ML and an audio recorder (or recorder + juicedlink) gives really nice in camera sound for a guide track (even as the main track if there are no interference issues). Alternatively you can run a recorder radio linked to an on camera Juicedlink on one XLR and feed the other XLR with a top mic for backup. The combinations are endless.
