Hey,

Does anyone have the iRiver 20gig portable mp3 player/recorder? I was looking at getting one due to the fact that all the reviews said it had an input for a external mic. I attend alot of music camps and irish sessions, and it would be convenient way for me to record tunes and then just dump the files on my laptop. With a mini disc i would have to rerecord via analog to my main computer.

I had the chance to look at an iRiver 20gig in Comp USA, and i did not see a mic input. It had an optical in and out, this special looking headphone type jack, and a 1/8" jack next to it. Perhaps that was the line in, but i did not see anything indicating it was.

If anyone can clear this up that would be great.

Don't buy it!

It generates glitches (it drops a few samples, making a click) occuring from time to time when writing from RAM to HDD, which ruins this could-be nice recorder. This occurs at bot waw and mp3 recording, form any source (even at optical in). It also lacks manual recording-volume meters.
