TP2 to record lectures?

[nyCecilia]

Hi all,

I just started taking a music class, and the teacher recommends recording the class for later review. For sure my TP2 should be able to do this?

Can anyone tell me what I need? Do I need to install a recording software, and if so, which one?

Do I need an external microphone, and again, what type / which one?

I also have an older iPod Touch (gen 2?) that I might be able to do this with, but I have the exact same questions for that.

Does anyone use their TP2 this way, and how do you handle it?

TIA!
