Hello Pele.

I forgot to mention that, in addition to setting the system to line-in, you are well advised to set the recording mode to radio.

Aden I'm not talkind about bitrate at all but about impedence. Your typical headphone impedence is much much higher than that of a line out socket on decent sound equipment. That is where the mismatch will occur if you use a headphone socket. But if you only need a basic recording which you will not really keep it should do. -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of Aidan Maher Sent: 26 November 2012 11:05 AM To: Plextalk User Discussion List Subject: Re: [Plextalk] Recording from Hi-Fi I agree.

I would agree with you. But at least the physical recording volume is there. The 3 settings does give you some kind of an indication but in between them you need to set it by ear definitely.

Hi Aidan, I’d agree with you that, when you use the Plextalk Pocket in combination with the PRS software, you can pretty much achieve an end result which is just as good as a recorder which records and edits direct into WAV or MP3. As far as I’m concerned, to mess about editing on a hardware recorder is much slower than transferring the recording to software like PRS and doing the editing there – PRS is so much more efficient. I reckon, if you use this combination well, you end up with the best of both worlds because, not only do you end up with a fully edited DAISY title but, as you point out, if you run the audio export feature, you also end up with WAV or MP3 files that can simply be lifted out of the DAISY structure and played on any other device that handles these formats. The resulting files don’t need the DAISY navigation structure around them to play properly.
