Andy,

I had the level set up to 20 but it still seemed sort of weak.  Also, I thought 
it only recorded a few seconds of my talking.  I guess I just didn't understand 
how it works.

  Bill - What level have you got the recording level set to? Just for 
clarification, it is the left hand one of the 3 push in buttons on the front, 
the speech feedback should tell you it's setting when you press it in, it 
ranges from 0 to 20.

  The built in mic isn't brilliant, but adequate enough for quick notes, but 
works best when quite close up.

    Dear Jamie,

    This is all very new to me.  I just got my ptr1 about a week ago.  I tried 
to just record me talking as a test, but not very successfully.  The recording 
seemed very weak in volume though I thought I had it set pretty high.  I was 
using the built-in mike.  Also, I thought it kept asking me for a title, which 
I didn't understand at all.  You wouldn't give a title to just recording 
nothing in particular.  I guess I just don't understand the unit very well at 
all.

      Bill,

      Can you give us a little more detail about what aspects of recording that 
you are having difficulty with.  The general heading of "recording" is a pretty 
big subject.  For example, is it straightforward voice recording or recording 
from another device that you are trying to do?

      Cheers,

      Jamie

      Dear List,

      My name is Bill Benson, and I am a new user.  I am having problems 
recording.  I have read the cassette and my guide on CD, but I guess it just 
wasn't clear enough for me, or maybe I'm just kind of dense.  Anyhow, I'm 
wondering if there is a good soul out there who might be willing to help.  I'll 
be waiting to hear.  This is a ptr1 by the way.
