Thanks for looking into it. I've been searching around too but, as I mentioned, this is my first project so I really appreciate your advice because while I'm searching I don't really know exactly what I am looking for...well, kinda. Basically I'm just looking for either one component that can record, and playback- or else two components I can combine together to achieve that. I'd be happy to purchase through you and your shop if you think you can suggest something that would work for my project. The audio I will be recording is primarily just people talking, so quality needs to be decent but doesn't have to be amazing. Thanks again very much.
