Hi, My organization is considering making recordings of
conferences/lectures that we do and one our people attend (Our main
thing is disseminating information relating to aquaculture). I am
trying to get them into it but since they barely have a concept of it
they aren't willing to put much money into it yet.
We have tested and provide to solutions. The best one uses a notebook
or desktop computer as the recording device. The SoniClear software has
the ability to follow an agenda prepared before an interview or
conference. This makes it easy to either create conference notes or
find specific areas of the recording. In addition, the conference or
interview can be put on a standard CD that can be played in a car or
personal CD player. See this at:

Of course, you can always use a good digital handheld recorder like the
Olympus D3000 or similar. With any of the recording solutions we have
three possible microphone recommendations for picking up speakers from
anywhere around a conference table. The first is called the Solo by
Phoenix technologies. This is a USB microphone that can be connected to
a notebook or desktop computer being used as the recorder. The Solo USB
microphone is good for distances to 15-18 feet around a table. See this

The other solution is the Acoustic Magic VoiceTracker in either the
Line In version or the USB version. The line in version 2 voice
tractors to be ganged together with a splitter to cover a huge area.
However, a single VoiceTracker by itself is good up to 25-30 feet. See

The trick when using a conference microphone is to inform the members
of the conference that only one person should speak at a time in order
for the recording to be easier to understand.
