Need cassette or digital recorder recomendations
What do you say about the model below?
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg...d=1121371378/s r=8-3/ref=pd_bbs_ur_3/102-1180370-7764911?v=glance&s=electronics&n=507846 I own the model that lacks a mic in jack (a good recorder), but without the mic in jack I will need to start looking for a new recorder. I need a tape recorder where I can use the mic in jack to capture sermons from TV (much cheaper for me than buying them). I need the recorder with the best quality. Or do you think a standard tape recorder would do better? Digital recorders are also another option, but as it looks they will be more hassle for what I wish to accomplish. Yes they may capture better sound quality, but then I'd have to burn the audio to a CD, and there is no guarantee that the digital recorder will connect to a Mac, so I am probably looking at a tape option here. Sony did make a boom box model that could record to CD, but I believe its off the market. Remember I am looking for the "cheapest" most convenient method. I don't know if I should upgrade my microcassette recorder, or just buy a standard tape recorder. For sermon purposes tape is just fine. Thanks, Johjn -- http://johnw.freeshell.org/bible/ 2Tim. 4:2 Preach the Word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage ‹ with great patience and careful instruction. 2Tim. 4:3 For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what their itching ears want to hear. |

Why don't you use a HiFi VCR - 6 hours on one tape, plus you get the video also. It's still the cheapest format around. |

Let it go man, let it go. As another poster suggested, why not use the HIFI VCR to capture the TV sermon? The HIFI capability, while not perfect, will be more than capable to catch everything from the TV sermon. Also, the Mac is not as obscure as you may think. I have a lowly G3 blue&white running Panther 10.3. I also have the IRiver IFP 790 flash player with built in voice-recorder. IRiver makes the software for Mac OSX that I use to download voice recordings to my computer. It converts the file to MP3 format during the download. This may be another option for you. CD |
