Can you record a song or 2 and have them replay each time you turn it on? My mom is 90...she cannot handle complicated electronics.

Yes you can. You should be able to record more than 2 songs as well. Hope this helps you

I do not know the answer to your specific question, but I found the options involved in setting up this recorder and then using it to be far more complicated than they should be. Directions included with it are very sparse.

Yes, and depending on what software you can record at least 2 tracks. No problem...

Not really, on this Item you may record only one message at a time. You may be looking for something like this other one: Multiple Message Recorder 208 Seconds Re-recordable Sound Module for Stuffed Animal Inserts, Craft Projects, School Presentations, Push Button Display Units (Push Button Attached By Wires)

I have to agree with what Eric said, I've done tape player recordings and they came out pretty good. I have a tape player that I plugged into the Sound Card, I tweaked the recording adjustments and it came out great. You can do so much with the card, I'm just a tinkerer and it was easy to use. I mostly use my card for playing music, gaming and chatting on-line.

I returned the item a long time ago, but I think you can actually come into a show already on the air, press "rec" and start watching, and then after that you can press "pause" and "play" all you wish. You cannot do this with a show that you set to record and then walked in on mid-way. Nor can you do the "rec/pause" trick while the unit is already recording a show - without messing up your recording.

You can download multiple ones. I do. I recorded my mom's dr. visits. Several on it at one time. It will hold 4 gig of data and that's a lot, and when you put it on your computer, click on "computer" and it will show it as a drive, click on it to open it up, and will show each recording individually.

Yes, Susan. This was purchased for my 84 yr old mother to take to her church choir practices. She doesn't read music or hear as well as she used to, but she still loves to sing and is very active in her church choir and also a Senior Music Group my sister in law has at her church. So, Momma takes the cassette player and her 120 minute tapes that we also bought from Amazon as they are getting hard to find so when we find them, we buy several, and she comes home with her sheet music and listens to the playback and learns the songs. Hope this helps you in making a decision about this cassette recorder. We have been very pleased with the purchase Yes, Susan.

The instructions don't say you can back up and record over. You can pause and restart. I use it to record groups so it just goes. Sorry I couldn't be of more assistance.

I have spent a lot of time with the unit and I don't believe you can do both. It is very specific for one activity at a time in playback. Could ask company? Pamphlet is vague and most of what I have learned has been trial and error.

I don't think it can do that. You can't access menus. I'm pretty sure it's noted, too, in the manual that the record and play functions can't be used when the used is connected. Google the Sony user manual to be sure. (Mine is packed away right now or I would.)

The answer is yes H. P. The actual process is a bit tricky since it starts recording when it wants to and there is no way to manually start the recording yourself. However I have found a method to record mp3s on it despite that dysfunctional flaw. You will too. Btw The idiots who can't figure out how to flip the voltage switch are laughable. I bought mine off eBay for $39.99 because the seller thought it was a faulty product. One flip of the switch later and I got a fully functional system for chump change. ^_^

You can record multiple messages per day. For example I have all birthdays loaded to repeat annually but if there are more appointments on a day you can just record more messages. When you press "today" it will say you have 3 messages (or whatever #) and play each one. The recording time is not limited either. I can leave my mom a long message with details and it will play it.

Yes you can. You can also record it and play it back later, but only on the machine that you recorded it on.

Yes, we do this all the time! For instance, last Sunday, we watched the Grammys and I had preset the recorder to record 2 episodes of Downton Abby. We watched Downton the next night. I have never tried just hitting record, but it sounds as though it would if you are in record mode, then return to TV mode to watch TV. I'll try it, and if it doesn't work, I'll do an update.

I haven't figured that out yet. My problem is I haven't read the instructions. I like things that are fairly simple, turn on play or record. I will be taking the time on my time off this week to figure it out. Sorry I do not have an answer for you.V/RJackie

I ordered this for my daughter and simply can't figure it out. Are there some better instructions out there. It seems to work for a bit but isn't the record button supposed to blink all the time while recording? I changed batteries twice but it seems to just stop? Any suggestions for a very technically challenged mom?

There is a record function button on the unit so I'm sure you can. However, I've had no occasion to try it.
