General discussion

which mp3 player should I use

Dec 5, 2005 7:34AM PST

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.

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 seminar, talks etc. that are broadcast over fm radio for the hearing impaired. I want to be able to record them in mp3 format to burn to cds. Maybe your right. I might be on the wrong track. If you any suggestions I would appreciate them. Right now, I record from a fm radio to cassette then to computer then burn. I am trying to eleviate this.

Thanks,
