Hello,

Have to echo this, tried this feature, but in my point of view, it was not
worth it.

Hi Don,

Not only is my recordings on the book port muffled but they also have a lot
of electronic interference in the background as well.

Greetings,

I am sighted but joined the list in order to learn more about the Book Port
that I just bought for my wife.

I am very pleased with the Book Port except for one minor thing.  Recorded
Audio Memos are very muffled due to lack of medium and high frequency
response.

I see in the Book Port Manual that the microphone is apparently in the front
upper right-hand corner as evidenced by three small holes, just right of
center above the "3" key and about a half-key diameter above the inside lip.

These holes are not present on my wife's Book Port.  There are no holes on
the front of the Book Port case other than for the 18 function keys.  The
only other holes in the unit are for the USB connector, headset plug and one
tiny (pin-size) hole in the vicinity of where the microphone should be.

I don't know if this is an intentional design change or an oversight in
manufacturing. But recorded audio should theoretically sound much better if
there was more venting of the microphone.

Do others have the same problem with muffled audio memos?  Do you have the
three holes on the front of the case on your Book Port?

Regards,

Don Bomer
