Hello Bill,
First, let me try to get you started.  Quik-scrybe has a Braille manual for 40 
dollars.  Call 303-4856861.  You must first create a title.  When your unit is 
on with a blank disk, press the 5 key and you will hear edit.  Then hit enter 
which is pound and you are in the edit dialogue.  Then hit the four key twice 
and you will be asked if you want to create a title.  hit pound key or enter 
twice and it will create a title for you.  When the unit says ready or 
something like that hit the record button on the low left.  Listen for how it 
is set.  The defaults should be fine then hit record again and speak into your 
built in microphone.  When you have listened to your sample, you can erase the 
title by going back into edit and hitting the four key once.  Pound or enter 
confirms.  Do get the braille manual.  Good luck.

  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

    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.
