[Braillenote] RECORDING WITH THE INTERNAL MICROPHONE

[Karen McDonald]

Hi, everyone,

Now that I have my email set up, I'm on to something new; thus, a brand-new 
problem.

I am attempting to record with the internal microphone.  These aren't 
serious recordings; they're just practice sessions.  I know that I can test 
the recordings so that's not really a problem.  However, I thought that if I 
just used the default settings that I could get something, but I've tried 
recording the radio and my voice, and nothing is heard but a little static 
and the recordings are truly awful.  However, if I have speech turned on on 
the BrailleNote, the recordings come through, as long as they are the 
BrailleNote's speech recordings, although a little loud, but I can deal with 
that.  My question is why am I not getting even halfway decent recordings 
when I record my voice with the internal microphone, or any other outside 
source, such as a radio?  I would appreciate any thoughts from any of you 
who have recorded a lot.  I understand that you can adjust the sound 
quality, but I would have thought that I'd get something, no matter how bad.

Karen
