OK, if it's decided to use Penfriends for this project, I have three further questions: 1. Is it possible to record using an external Mic through the jack on the Penfriend which looks as though it should do the job? 2. If it's possible to record in a studio, does anyone know how to name the files so that they are associated with particular labels? 3. I presume that I'm correct in thinking that, if some labels were placed on maps, you'd need to use the same label from the same kind of pack to tell each Penfriend which file to play?
