TP2 to record lectures? - Page 2

I believe the default file location is the memory card.... Go to the recordings menu and you'll see they go to the card by default.
Also... The internal mic will do just fine as your phone has a secondary mic built in for noise "cansellation" during a speaker phone call.
So the sound is not half bad if you are close to the action. I sit off to the side and towards the back and am still able to pick up the lecture.

I second that, goes straight to your memory card. I always use mine, and I've never changed a setting and its always on the memory card. You should be good to go as long as you have a decent memory card. 8gb should even be enough

Thanks, guys. I've calmed down a bit, and it does appear to default to the card, which is strangely wonderful, in some ways, but then there's always the problem of running out of space on the card

Ah, well. I can't wait to try it!

Thanks. I am yet again flabbergasted how something that should be so simple, changing a file location, is so ridiculously difficult/impossible.

Google search brings up various methods for changing default file locations, but NONE appear to be avialable. Why there is no Tools-->Options menu in the recorder so that I can choose where to save the file really leaves me amazed.

My only other choice is to try recording a lecture and probably lose it because there isn't enough space? When I know for a fact there's several gigs of space on my card...

Sorry, every time I try to work with this gadget I get more and more frustrated. When it works, it's great, but when it doesn't--watch out

I don't know what you mean about everything being so difficult/impossible. Even though you don't need to do it, what I suggested is pretty straightforward. You just have to use that thing that is above your sholders.

lol you missed what I posted just before you posted this.

The thing that is above my shoulders tends to freeze up when frustrated.

There is an app called resco audio recorder that is absolutely amazing for recording audio. i have an acoustic guitar that doesnt plug in and i use it all the time to record myself and the quality is amazing. you can change where it saves to and change it from mp3 to wav to 320 kbps if you wanted to.

PM me for more info on it
