i'm not quite clear on what you are using it for, but it sounds to me that you need some kind of quality recorder. I don't believe you will find the best recorder in an mp3 player.
sorry maybe I'm misunderstanding the question...
I record for the hearing impaired over fm transmission. I have tried the samsung yp-t8z. I get faded in and out static. Samsung said it was probably the earplugs acting as a mini antenna. I am trying to get an answer to my problem. Can this be eliminated? Do I need a different mp3 recorder. Does anyone have any suggestion as to how to eliminate this problem? Or do I need a different player that doesn't have this problem?
thank you for any assistance.
