Hi all.
Just managed to secure a job after almost four years unemployed. Now
considering options for recording interviews, home visits, supervision
sessions etc.
I used to use a small hand cassette recorder to record interviews and then
type this information up in my computer. I now have a Sony minidisk and
although this has a much better quality of recording, it is difficult to
manipulate the recording afterwards, e.g, pausing, rewinding etc. Cassette
recorders with piano key controls are much easier but as I said the quality
is poorer.
I'd also like the option to saving audio recordings on my computer for
future use, so minidisk sounds my best option. However, I have only been
able to transfer information via the Line-in feature of my sound card and
this is very time consuming.
Can anyone advise me of which device would be most suitable for me, e.g,
cassette recorder, minidisk recorder or mp3 recorder? Any additional
information concerning makes and models would also be very appreciated.
Best wishes.
Andy from sunny Kilcreggan.
