I wish I knew how to name thee titles. We have thousands of recordings so labelling them all is necessary. <br/><br/><br/>Cathy W <br/>First Languages Speaking Project Inc. <br/>www.allanadam.com<p>Sent from my BlackBerry® wireless handheld</p><hr/><div><b>From: </b> Heather Souter <hsouter@GMAIL.COM>

</div><div><b>Subject: </b>Re: [ILAT] Sony ICD-SX750 Stereo digital voice recorder....</div><div><br/></div>Taanshi, Keola,<br><br>Thanks for the heads up!<br><br>I have now tested the ICD-SX750 for Mac compatibility. It is as simple as plugging into a USB port, clicking on "IC Recorder" icon on the desktop and then dragging and dropping the files. I then played both a .wav (LPCM at 44.1Hz) and an .mp3 file by simply clicking on them. They both opened up immediately and played on my default player (iTunes). I then opened the .wav file using Transcriber. There were no problems either. So, it seems that the ICD-SCX750--in contrast to the ICD-MX20-- really is Mac compatable. That said, I almost wish I had waited just a few days more and I would have been able to get a Zoom H1.... Maybe next time! LOL!<br>

<div style="word-wrap: break-word;">Heather, have you tested the Mac compatibility? I have an ICD-MX20, and in all recording modes it uses Sony's proprietary compression, which cannot be read on any Mac program I'm aware of (this was based on testing and research 2 years ago when I bought it; perhaps that's changed). When I bought the unit I too was told it was "Mac compatible. The unit will mount on a Mac, but the files are unreadable/unplayable. I've always had to load them on a PC, convert to WAV or MP3, then transfer to my Mac. Perhaps your model is different and allows you to record uncompressed or using a compression scheme that is Mac readable.<div>

I got it on sale for about $150CAD and am hoping it is a sound purchase (PC/MAC compatiable, records in Linear PCM in both 22.05 and 44.2Hz....). I have a good XLR mic and need to purchase a XLR to stereo mini-jack transformer cable. I am thinking of going with a Hosa but if anyone has a different suggestion, please advise. <span> </span><br>
<br>BTW, thanks to some recent comments on the list about the impact of weird-looking recording gadgets on Eldersilat, I will be keeping my wind sock on my voice recorder at almost all times! <span> </span><br></span></blockquote>
