I am purchasing this for a blind friend. Could you please describe the positions of the jacks so I can tell him? (i.e. "while holding the recorder...)

With the buttons to the right and the cassette door facing you, the jacks will be on the bottom side. In the photo, you can see them on the side to the right. From the right/button side of that bottom panel, there is the built-in mic (there are parallel ridges over it, on that corner), the mic jack is next to the built-in mic, next to it is the head-set jack, then the volume control wheel with low being toward the button-side, a battery light, finally on/off VAR switch (I can't remember what that does!) with on being toward the non-button side. Wow--it's not easy to explain, but I hope that helps! With the buttons to the right and the cassette door facing you, the jacks will be on the bottom side.

James, I am sorry that I am unable to help you with this since I sent my purchased one to the person I bought it for. If I remember correctly, all of the jack ports are on the right hand side as it is facing you (the side where the cassette is inserted) and I believe there were raised emblems for both the ear phones and extra microphone. I don't know what else I can tell you. Again, sorry for not much help at this time.

I have the same issue before and I could not able to find the location of microphone. I tried to record and found the quality of recoded voivce was OK infront or in the left side it.

Hi, Using only the half inch speaker from the recorder, very limited in frequency response, no bass at all and very low level; but if you put it on a solid table surface and raise volume to max level, you can hear it ok from a foot or two, no distorsion. Using a pair of good headphone, sound is excellent, loud enough, no distorsion, can easily be used as a Walkman. When I use it to record musical performance, I always carry good headphone to get better monitoring. Louis

Yes! The jack is right next to the mic jack. It takes a mini plug. I had an identical cassette player recorder like this one for over 25 years,and I got a lot of use out of it. I recommend it very highly. Good luck.

What would be your rating for the recording performance via the 3.5 mm line in jacks?Excellent, Good, Satisfactory or Poor.

Sorry I haven't been able to understand the manual myself (it didn't come with a decoder ring). I have found that the recording using the internal mic is deplorable. Good luck.

No mic jack. There was a built in mic I never used. I would not recommend the item in any case. The sliding tuner was undependable, and the sound was poor.

You are so right. I did not realize this until i went to play back what i had just recorded and discovered it was not there. That's when i realized i had reached the end of the tape without knowing. If you get an answer to your question please let me know. I assumed it was a flaw in the design i had to live with. More power to you at least you asked the question. Good luck ~Kindly~Renate

The question is what is your plug... it has a 3 point microphone standard... and 1/4" jack in one plus you can find an adapter that fits into the 3 point so you can do mini jacks... it also has phantom power... so, I don't think it is a problem. The only problem I have experienced with it is that you cannot "listen in the ear phone" when you are recording which is a feature I really wanted for video as well... it isn't 100% the kind of device you would hope for.

It records stereo from a 90 or 120 degree cone. The stereo jack is standard. The mount attaches to the standard flash foot.

Sort of...you can move the frame adapters horizontally along the length of the jack as needed. You can also unscrew the adapter up to approx. 2 inches before losing the threads--which helps adjust to fit your frame. The adapters are the least useful part of the jack. I use them less to catch the frame than to balance the frame on the jack itself.

Only has a 1/8 jack for headphones, but sound is crystal clear and if plugged into a powered stereo system can turn volume up on recorder as well as stereo. I didn't like that I couldn't get direct playback via speaker, but can listen to audio being recorded on the fly with headphones.

Funny thing... I own this monitor. The jack isn't labeled and nowhere in the box, documentation or CD does it say what it is. Matt's correct. It's 1/8" audio out.

I've spent hours on google trying to figure out whether various camcorder models have microphone jacks. It is never in the description. Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can Google "(model number brand) microphone jack" and find a review which specifies. I'm pissed off. It shouldn't take this long to shop for a camera.
