Ah I forgot about the Zoom H6. Yeah it's epic. It could if you used all the XLR connecters With mikes and set it up right and had the software to create this later theriticly do 5.1 surround sound. John has to remember though unless like Neal he can remember the menues or uses 1 of the podcasts as a reference, it'll be set and forget. Maybe it's just me. Maybe I like things super easy. But since the thing doesn't talk I'd get confused. So I'd have a sighted person set it than forget about it. Yes recording with this should be easy enough. -----Original Message----- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Andy Logue Sent: Sunday, February 7, 2016 3:57 AM To: PC Audio Discussion List <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Subject: Re: Hardware recording...
Hi John. Around November last year I took the plunge and bought a portable didgital recorder of extraduanery quality, called the Zoom H6. In the UK this cost me about £370.00. I didn't tell my wife just how expensive it was, haha. As far as accessability is concerned, it's not too good but I have listened to all Mr. Neal Ewars, a well known blind sound engineer from the US, podcasts on the machine. It is aparently the best such device anywhere on the planet and yes, a blind person can easily record sound at 24 bit sterio. I'm currently recording a local band in Kilcreggan, who meet every Wednesday night. I use Goldwave to edit my recording and Nero to burn onto disk. I must tell you that the quality of the recordings I make blow the minds of my friends. They think that I must really know my stuff as the recordings are as good as you'll get in a recording studio. I'm loving this attention! I'm thinking of helping my small community magazine to make their monthly paper accessable to blind people, by recording it and posting it on memory sticks to people in my community who cannot read print. So, for a portable recording studio, which you can hold in your hand that gives you the best sound quality possible in the world, please consider the Zoom H6. All the very best. Andy from a wet and dreary Scotland. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Chilelli" <j...@neo.rr.com> To: "'PC Audio Discussion List'" <pc-audio@pc-audio.org> Sent: Sunday, February 07, 2016 6:12 AM Subject: Hardware recording... > Hi all, > > > > Does anyone know of an accessible, or at least a somewhat accessible > solution for us to be able to do some decent music / studio recordings via > a > hardware device? > > > > Thanks much, > > > > John > > >
