can this recorder be used on a desk or table without being held in your hand?
500625
yes you can. just press record and keep it on the table. another option is to connect the wired control (called remote ) and control with that (you can extend the wire also with proper connectors)
500626
Yes - in fact it comes with a mini-tripod for that purpose. The recorder however makes this arrangement kind of top-heavy and vulnerable. I used a camera tripod effectively.

Absolutely!...it is also designed to be used with a tripod and this kit comes with one

No, it's capable of being used entirely on its own. Though if you want to record anything, a computer is needed.

I did not keep this recorder; I didn't like it, so I returned it. I've been using my iPhone with the Dictamus app to record notes or conversations, and it's very easy to continue a recording session.

Yes....great recordings are possible with this recorder....I highly recommend it....I and others are very impressed with it's quality of sound....just be careful with it....mine fell over on a tripod and now only half of the screen works....but I'm still using it. Great buy for the price!

No. This is a wireless headset for wearing onstage when you need your hands to be free. It does not record anything.

It will record from a microphone located on the side of the unit. I seldom use it, but it is fine for recording meetings etc. Not a stellar recorder, but in a pinch it can do the job. It does not have port for recording from another kind of device, but you can transfer files for listening using the computer input which is located on the end of the unit where the earphone jack is located. Top hole is for earphone, then the on/off switch, then the USB mini which can transfer data from a computer. Hope that helps you.

There is an on/off switch that you use when you need it to record or stop recording. It won't automatically start recording for you. And it doesn't need to be plugged into any device when you want to record only when you need to listen to your recordings or when it is charging. And in case this is helpful to you or anyone else, I have the Microsoft surface and it won't play on there because there isn't an app i can use to play it, but it will play back on my laptop and computer because both devices already have a program that it can play the recordings on. Hope this info helps!

you could and it would work , but I don´t know about the quality of the recording since that is only for monitoring purposes. If there is line out in your keyboard I would use that

This works through your computer, PC or laptop, not with any recorder. This is for digital transcription, not tapes.

It can be used on its own only if your recording device can supply condenser mic voltage (approximately 3 VDC). This is an option on many field and portable recorders, as well as many PCs and laptops. I hope this is what you are asking.

Yes, audio recording has its own on/off function. But overall, I don't recommend this device.

Sure, but you need a tuner for the input. Any cable box or digital antennae will provide a "signal out" to plug into the recorder. The unit does NOT have it's own tuner.

This item is not a recorder at all. It is simply the input side that gets audio and video to another device such as a recorder or monitor for viewing. Yes, anywhere you want to place the camera will require the running of wires from the camera location all the way to the recorder or monitor.

Not necessarily if you have some other way to record. We have wireless Internet and we each have a IPhone. So we have our security system connected so we use our lap tops to record and see every thing live on our phones when we are away from the house. I think I read in the comments someone had recorded to an old VHS recorder.

No, you can't. This recorder doesn't have usb connection, only stores in a built-in memory and you play from it.
