Default small recorder with speaker that doesn't vary speed

I need a small recording device with a mic and speaker in one unit that
will play back at the same speed that you record onto it.

The time and pitch performed and played back should be the same, that's
the goal.

I also need to stop it often and play back quickly (for rehearsals and
classes) so a minidisc is too tough for stopping and starting many
times. Cassette is the best medium, for ease of use, but they have
"variable playback speed" which does not lend itself to precision tape
recording speed.


You need a digital recorder. Your mobile 'phone will probably do it
:-) But you can get dedicated units with rather better speakers. I
saw a rather neat Olympus one recently - an actress was using it as I
was teaching her a song.
