I have a simiular requirement in that the quality of the recording must be good
to start with. Is there anything o the market that records to flash card
memory? My Bookcourier does this and records to WAV but the internal
microphone and the fact that the software is unreliable in that area makes in
unusable.
I treid using a minidisc recorder and while the quality was good, the discs
were very fiddly and it was so small that eventually somebody lost it.

Hi Ray.
It's surprising how much the costs vary around the country eh?
Nevertheless, it's still quite expensive at £239 and the only means of
transferring data to my computer, from this device, is via line-in.
It's a pity it did not have a usb connection, so that I could simply copy
files from the device to my computer.
I believe that some mp3 devices can do this, but I'm still wanting good
quality sound recordings, for interviews, and a method of editing these from
the device, wherein I can hear the sound via internal speakers.
The MZ B100 'so has quite large buttons which would make pausing, rewinding
and playing the device easier for tactile dependant users and is probably
the device that I'll end up purchasing. I just wish that I could hear more
from workers who use a different method of recording, saving and editing
audio files.
Best wishes.
Andy
