Re: voice recorders that append

2009-02-23 Thread Jeff Samco

Hi, Steve,

I can only speak to the operation of the Sony ICD-B25 which is about 
7 years old now. It is quite easy to use with the audio beeps 
function turned on (which is by default). The clock and alarm 
functions are totally inaccessible but all the basic and intermediate 
functions are fine, such as:

record, stop, playback and skip forward and back;
splitting a recording, joining 2 recordings, erasing a recording;
moving from one folder to another, and so on.
But I cannot say what features remain accessible in currently-available models.
As for price, 7 years ago I paid about $75 but that's not going to 
tell you what they cost today since recording capacities have 
improved so dramatically and features added like stereo recording.

I'm a little late on this thread. I have an older Sony ICD-B25 
voice recorder which does append. On the hunch that Sony still 
makes recorders with this feature I checked out the first one I 
found on Amazon:
Sony ICD-P520 Digital Voice Recorder with 256 MB Built-in Flash 
Memory and USB

and found this in its feature list:
* Add Recording: Insert and add additional information to any 
message without affecting the original.

HTH,
Jeff

Re: voice recorders that append

2009-02-22 Thread Robert Logue

I have Sony model ICD-P620.  Was about $80 in Canada at The Source.

The good:
4 folders with 99 messages per folder.
message append function.
Long recording time even at highest quality.
Menus easy to navigate with beeps.
Many settings can be changed with included software that works well with 
screen readers.


The bad:
Loud handling noise.
Batteries difficult to change.
Battery life not as good as my old Olympus.
Slow to respond to actions.

Not a bad recorder overall but Sony could do better.  They might with other 
models.

Yest!  The milestone 311 offers up to ten folders that can be voice tagged. 
Also has the ability to pause/resume  recording.
I don't know of any unit that allows you to append to a file after the 
original file has been recorded.
I think one would beed to start a new file then combine the two files if you 
so wish.
Good luck and god Speed!
