RE: Mp3 player/recorder with line in?

Yes,
pogo at pogoproducts.com has the Radio Your Way LX, which allows for input 
recording via a mini plug. It also has am/fm radio built right into the player 
with timer recording capabilities.

there was however speculation they were discontinuing the item here in the 
states due to a law suit by Apple, but I'm not sure what that was about or how 
much truth is to that info...


Best Regards,
Cornell

 people used to use many of the Iriver player-recorders. I am not familiar 
 with any
 of them, but the muvo recorders from creative are mostly inaccessible to blind
 people. a scroll wheel is used to access the menus. since they don't beep, you
 don't know where you are! I was quite disappointed because they are small 
 enough
 to fit into a pocket. they use a sub-miniature jack for the line in jack too.

 Subject: Mp3 player/recorder with line in?


 Hello,

 A friend of mine wants to record things like the radio and tv using some
 sort of modern mp3 or similar audio player/recorder. We're looking around
 for any such unit which is inexpensive and has a line in jack. Are there any
 such things available?

 I know of the PlexTalk, and I think MileStone311 also can do this, but I was
 hoping to find something a bit less expensive.

 Perhaps the Edirol R9 may also do this, I'm not sure, but that comes with a
 price too.

 He has a Creative Moovo, I think he said, It does what he wants, but you
 must crawl thru a dozen menus to do it.

 Help appreciated.

If you want something not so expensive, checkout the better voice
recorders from Sony and Olympus.

The Sony ICD-SX57 has 256 megs of built-in memory and offers line-in
recording. You can even tell it to let you control the recording level
manually and turn a limiter on or off. However, it records in the LPEC
format and one has to use the supplied and very accessible Memory
Voice Editor, if one wants to archive the show in Wave or MP3. Also,
the lowest recordable frequency is 80 Hertz, so I'd not use it for
high quality music recordings. However, the Sony's are great for
recording speech programs like news or talk shows.

The Olympus DS-30 has 256 mb of built-in memory as well and it offers
talking menus. It records in WMA, which can be easily converted to MP3
with free programs like Switch. However, it doesn't offer direct
line-in recording. One has to buy an additional Olympus cable called
KA333 to do that.

Both recorders should be available for about or less than $200.
