Initially men are recording sound of cow with Electronic Kit? (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

marlowe

'kit?' is the definition.
(Christopher Marlowe was nicknamed Kit)

'initially men are recording sound of cow with electronic' is the wordplay.
'initially' indicates taking the first letters.
'sound of cow' becomes 'low' (low can mean a mooing sound).
'with' says to put letters next to each other.
'electronic' becomes 'e' (as in e-mail or e-books).
The initial letters of 'men are recording' is 'mar'.
'mar'+'low'+'e'='MARLOWE'

(Other definitions for marlowe that I've seen before include "Author" , "Christopher -, sixteenth English dramatist" , "Christopher -, playwright (Tamburlaine)" , "English poet" , "Kit" .)
