anyone know how to record their own voice and convert it so it works with ipods? i only have headset + mic and ipod nano

I don't know if you can record directly onto Ipods. But you can easily download some sort of recording software, plug your microphone into your computer, save the recorded files and put them on your Ipod.

If you are planning to make notes and listen to them while you sleep, my friend told me that doesn't work. And you should believe him.

Ipods are crap because they do not have a voice recording feature unlike most other decent mp3s.

You can record sound from your computer a number of ways, you will need a microphone however. A $5 or something is fine.

You get sick of the repitition after a while and eventually you will give up...

I've never tried it, I've thought about it many times but never actually got round to it.
I think the process of actually recording it would maybe make me remember it, but I don't know.

I've always wanted to try this out ! But I've only done classical music while I sleep & occassionally work. Although my mp3/4? whatever has voice recording which is madd .. but I just cant stand hearing myself talk ! lol

Same here.

I recorded tonnes of notes and activities for Italian last year via distance because I had to record oral tasks anyway. I got sick of hearing my own voice after a while. Get someone with a sexy voice (say, Steve Cannane from Hack on JJJ) to record it for you if you plan to make recordings of work. That's my theory, anyway.

I have a mac, so i use garageband to record, then export to iTunes. Otherwise, any mic would do.

On usefulness... I find recording brilliant. Have you seen that pyramid thing where apparently audiovisual stimuli doubles retention rate or something? I find the key is actually having audio and visual. So read your notes while you're listening to them.

Works wonders.

A music player is crap because it doesn't allow you to record sound? What is the world coming to?
