My specific planned use is unobtrusively recording normal conversation. So mike has to be very sensitive. Is it? Specifically, I want to record "oral history" conversations with my soft-spoken mother, who gets self conscious if a microphone shows up....

Get her to a quiet area, preferably just you two. You can then put the unit away from you two and begin the conversation. I have used it in a dance hall setting to record dance instructions and have found it is great. I know that the New York NPR reporters use this device; I was at an event where they were using it and commented that it was the same one I used.

i would suggest you cup the dogtag in your palm and play real life hand telephone. the mike is sensitive enough for clear pickup and transmission while hanging from your neck, and don't forget this device is slightly amplified. in bluetooth music it amplifies your volume.. i've had no problems with public use of this thing though. i used it on the bus and train with no problem. you'll need to take the same precautions you usually do when you want a more private muted convo...hand telephone. with it around your neck, at a desk, it looks no more than as if you're resting your chin/cheek on your palm as if daydreaming.

The mics in this recorder are sensitive. It might sound s little bit tinny that way, but it will do it.

Yes. There are three pickup volume settings. If you are trying to capture speaking voices, use the lowest (one bar) setting and it should record everyone who speaks. Although, if people in the back speak softly, it may be more difficult to hear on the recording.

You know what . . . .? I haven't used my digital voice recorder since I got my Macbook which records my voice and then I can lay a track of music over the voice recording. I use it for my hypnosis client's sessions. So I can't help with your question, sorry.

The EVP Recorder is up to you. I would and do. The Mel-Meter does not record voices. Thanks. Darin. Ghost Hunting Source.

I completely recommend against that. This is a good microphone, with great quality. However, It has a low sensitivity. I tried doing this myself as my in-game microphone(gamer) but unless the microphone is almost touching your lips, it wont pick up your voice.

Where does your audio come from? You can put it near a speaker to record that. When I want to record something on speakerphone, I take it out of my ear and lay it on the telephone speaker. It records that well and also records my voice if I speak out loud into the speakerphone. If the online training is on your PC, couldn't you record the audio directly?

Yes - but I don't know the sensitivity (threshold that triggers the mic). I use "always on" to avoid a break in the recording.

Hello,If your computer has "MICROPHONE INPUT" and recording software MAYBE okay to use. However just want to remind you that the sound produce maybe very low and sometimes unable to hear. Hope this helpThank you

Live? There is a built in mic, and you can use it to record voice tracks, but i wasn't able to add any effect to it. Even so, that would be a loop. And not "live". It's a fun machine.

I use mine almost exclusively just for this. You want to get into the "habit" of turning it on before you make contact with a person. Also, the laws of your State will tell you if you can use the "one-party" knowledge pertaining to the audio. That one party would be you, yourself. That is the law in the state I live in.

In my opinion it is too sensitive for live performance without feedback being an issue. It is more appropriate for recording in a studio environment. Just my opinion, it may work for you.

hey thanks for the info! as it turns out, my camera DOES have a mic input. boy do I feel stupid :) but i guess I won't need this one after all. I do think that it would work in a pinch, and thanks again for taking the time to respond-SelArom

I am not sure what you are asking. Here is the link to a video with an interview I recorded outside with one man, but others behind and to the right kept making comments off camera. All recorded with the mic mounted pointing forward on the camera. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPArQkwxK-s jump ahead a couple minutes if you don't want to watch the introduction. I hope this will help.

Not sure, but if you are referring to having it connected to a computer it could be a soft ware issue. I think I was covering up the mic with my hand at times inadvertently while recording.

I used this set up to record a bunch of spoken word poetry so I would say yes.my understanding is the mic is also designed to work well in environments that are not acoustically sound. So again, you should be good.
