iriver recording
i’ve finally spent some time to read through the manual on recording on my iriver to figure out how recording works with the hope that I could produce something that doesn’t sound like utter crap and the first signs aren’t encouraging. I first tried doing this during liz phair’s show at bumbershoot last year and just got static but figured i’d chosen a bad format or input source since I didn’t know what I was doing (the ihp120 has impressive specs for this and can record from an internal or external mic or normal or optical line-in). now i’ve tried the internal mic as documented to record mp3 format and got fuzz again. If the provided external mic doesn’t work then i’m out of luck. i’ve still got So Here We Are by Bloc Party on now though so I can’t complain too much.
UPDATE 2005.03.21 AGC
I turned on automatic gain control and my internal mic is now
recording like a champ. I love my iriver again!
