I have read reviews that the recorder picks up static if the phone moves during a conversation.Can I use a Bluetooth headset and still record?

I have no idea if you can use Bluetooth. I found the recorder cumbersome and returned it.

No... you have to go thru the unit. I had heard the same complaints before I purchased it. Some people are satisfied with any product unless it also washes their car, does their laundry, and feeds them lunch. I haven't had any problems keeping it in line and I'm a wiggly person. It's not a big problem and this unit is easy to use. AND... the quality and the price are both great! Go for it... it's a great little unit! I own two of them now... no problems whatsoever.

I would not recommend this device. As far as I can tell, and I tried numerous times, bluetooth recording was not available. And recording otherwise has not been satisfactory.

I turned off the motion activated setting (I think it's delivered with that setting on) and then set it to record at the maxium 15 min segment. It'll still talk every once and a while, but not nearly as often. After I set it up this way it basically just records continuously ( but it does say 'recording' if a new 15 min segment starts. As far as I can tell there isn't a way to simply turn off that annoying pointless voice that you can't even understand anyway. Hope that helps.

I just bought a Blue Mikey to improve the sound quality when recording video on the iPhone 3GS - unfortunately it seems to only record mono. Has anyone else experienced this?ThanksHerb

I haven't tried it in that way (phone calls). My experience with the product has been a challenge. I purchased it to record video interviews and it recorded, but the feed for the headphones didn't seem to work. Sorry I don't have an answer for you.

This device is to record a phone call using an external recorder. You plug this into the Microphone port (Mic) on a portable recorder (like for recording a lecture, or even a stereo or PC) and then you put the earpiece in your ear and talk into the phone like you normally would and it records your conversation. I bought this for my step daughter who was working for a local paper doing interviews over the phone.

As long as you do the recording part, separately, then add in the music. The bluetooth microphone requires an app running, you record via it, then save to your camera roll.

I'm not sure what you're referring to by "call recorder" (an app, maybe?), but I have recorded phone conversations by putting my cell phone on speaker and then setting the phone near the digital recorder. That has worked well for me.

No, I don't see how. This jack is just for a microphone with an XLR connection. I don't think most setups for recording phone calls would use that kind of mic. On the other hand, it would work if you used the mic to record a call using the hands-free speaker function on your phone.

I have not had that problem. It works very well for me. My setup is telephone line in, single jack. I have a splitter on the jack going to modem and wired phone. The jack to wired phone is mediated by a filter (one of those standard filters the phone company provides for modem). I use the VEC TRX-20 connected to the phone between the base and the receiver and then connect the VEC TRX-20 to the digital recorder. Works perfectly for me. If you are using the device as intended and getting static, you might want to exchange it.

Your voice and the caller's voice will be recorded. I don't think it is through this microphone though. The recorder itself, will record your voice and this microphone will record the caller's voice. Hopefully I answered your question.

Yes. It is not as loud or good quality as if you were recording someone talking directly, but it is clearly audible.

If this is something to connect to the phone to record conversations, i returned both unopened. i have no idea how it works. sorry.

It records both your voice and the other side of the call. I believe when you talk, your voice also goes back through the speaker that you hear others on and therefore it gets recorded. You can't tell that it's occurring because it does it instantly while you're talking, but after using it for months, I can assure you it does record both sides of the conversation. I use it to record meetings and I can hear both sides of the conversation equally well. This product works great.

Why would you bother? Impedance changes, XLR versus mini line level changes, more possibilities for bad mechanical connection. Consider borrowing a digital recorder with XLR input, if the microphone is important for the application. If this is your only available recorder (and it's a good one), then prepare to deal with noise or dropouts.

This Recorder is an excellent tool for any recording, including a phone conversation. For a proper both way conversation recording, you'd need, however, a "Telephone Recording Device (TP-7)", or a newer model "Olympus TP-8 Telephone Pick-up Microphone", available at amazon.com http://www.amazon.com/Olympus-TP-8-Telephone-Pick-up-Microphone/dp/B008AGP5EW/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid;=1362587699&sr;=8-4&keywords;=Telephone+Recording+Device+%28TP-7%29
