Which digital voice recorder is best for class lecture?

Opinions on a voice recorder?

  • I'll start class in the spring but I wanna start early and get supplies and I wanna get a voice recorder, does any one have any opinions on good voice recorders? the price don't matter I know this was asked quite a few times but between Sony and Olympus - they both seem good, so which one is the best?

  • Answer:

    Olympus is nice. You can get them as cheap as $35.00 but keep these things in mind: -> the maximum record time is given when you have selected the LOWEST QUALITY. So if a recorder is rated for 144 hours it actually means around 25 hours high quality. -> for $52 you can get a recorder able to hook up to your PC to download the sound files for later reference. -> the really expensive recorders (100+) record in Stereo. In my opinion they aren't worth it for speech.

Actually, I use an iriver "ifp" series mp3 player (for example, the ifp-800). It's an older model, and you can probably get a used one for really cheap. You don't need much memory if you have a computer to put the classes on. The advantage of the iriver i use is that it records in excellent quality, plus the file sizes are really small. So you get great quality, and an hour long class taker up about 15 MB of space - tiny compared to 60 MB or more that other mp3 players use.

I selected a Cubig CVR-L210, which I purchased at Radio Shack for less than $120 USD. It has served me well.
