And I'm sure you did this, but you did have your recording source set to
external mike?
by the bye, I did buy that cute little mike from Olympus we were talking
about. I llike it a lot, but howls like a banchee if any wind hits it even
when I swaddled it. Hahahaha! But I also found another stereo mike I have
that does work in stereo, and I have one that doesn't. Can't figure out why
some stereo mikes work with the Braille Plus and some don't. Why is that?
Peace,
Kathy

| Hi fellow listers:
|
| Well, am I missing something? Today I took the microphone from my Olumpus
| DS50 and plugged it into my Icon, both directly and through the remote
| cable. In neither instance was I able to produce a stereo recording,
despite
| having set the recording quality for 192KBPS, 44.1KHz stereo. Joe's email
| below indicates that the Icon should produce a stereo recording...and yes,
I
| made sure the plugs were fully inserted in to the microphone jack.

| Hi, Kathy,
|
| I'm sure that Richard will also respond to your note.
|
| Yes, the Braille Plus has an excellent stereo recorder. When set to it
| maximum or
| highest quality music setting, the recording quality rivals that of any c
d.
|
| The Olympus mikes work with our units because they take advantage of the
| "phantom" power
| employed in our units. There's about 3 volts of such power, not a common
| standard. I have not
| found any mikes which use 3 volts except those from Olympus. I think the
| model
| number of wha! is or perhaps was their best mike is m e s 2. I might be
| wrong there.
| These must be bought directly from Olympus and not from dealers.
|
| Other mikes, even those which do not use "phantom" power, can be used, but
| Olympus mikes can
| be directly plugged into the mike jack. This is not true for most mikes.
|
| I'm about to run some simple tests to show me just how well these mikes
| reproduce music.
|
| If there's enough interest, either Richard kr I will let you know the
| results.
|
| Lots could be written about this subject, including considerationst to
watch
| for when connecting
| devices to the mike jaack.
