Location: PDX | Well i spent a good deal of time searching for some info this weekend. I found TONS of information if i wanted to start a home studio.Ttoo much info actually, i couldn't refine the search and come up with what i was looking for.
Here's what i am looking for: i want to be able to digitally record my guitar lessons, bring it back home and have the ability to play it back at variable speed. Actually i just want to record my teacher playing the piece through.
I think i have the software side of this figured out, but not the hardware. I looked into mini-disks but they have some proprietary file system that takes more interfaces to change to a .wav file.
Any advice -- even if it is how to better search the forums?

Location: Capital District, NY, USA Minor Outlying Islands | What's wrong with an analog recording on a casette? In fact, I've insisted that students provide a casette so that the lesson be recorded. It's cheap and reliable. |

Location: Sarajevo, Bosna i Hercegovina | Can iPod (or a cassette) vary the playback speed of a recording? I personally never thoroughly played with one, but that's what you need, you say. There's software for PCs that can do it after you record on an iPod, though. Just my 5 cents worth... Take care. |

It's cheap and reliable. the pitch changes when you slow a cassette down. With a digital recording you can run it through software that will maintain pitch at any speed. Which, for me, is what i am looking for. Also you can loop sections off a digital recording. Whereas on a tape you have to rewind -- guess i'm lazy.
