One of the most interesting things I've ever done with the LS-100 was to set it up as a sound device for my Mac, no reason why it won't work on Windows. That's a nice and easy way to add some flexibility to your recording system on your computer if you're looking for some stand-out microphones - built-in as part of the recorder or your choice of external microphones -, XLR inputs of course, line-in etc.

Breathe into that side and yeah you hear wind like if it were going into omni mics. I almost got a P4 for the FLAC recording and playback. But I wanted XLRs and phantum. lol But how doews it do with holding your place. If I have a beef with the 14 it's with the MP3 playback. That it rewinds and fast forwards too far and that if you shut it down it won't hold your place. I know it's not a player like the DMs were especially those that had the podcast folder. Maybe I should see about a DM 520 or 620. For MP3s. My Mile Stone 311 died.
