Recording Device
Do anyone have any suggestions on what kind of recorder I should buy to hear all my mistakes in my music room. And to see if there's improvement . Thanks for your help . Ron

Ron, I use a laptop with Power Tracks Pro Audio/Band in Box and a small i/o box to either run a line directly from the amp or a microphone. There's a gentleman on the Forum who has an entire web site devoted to this. Works really well.

recording device???
I don't know about a recording device, but I can send my wife over, she will gladly point out all the mistakes in your playing, and the rest of your life as well. BTW if you've ever lost anything her UTD (Uterine Tracking Device)is amazing at finding lost keys, remotes, . . ..
sorry about the hijack, I'll go stand in my corner now.

Walter, no thanks for your offer . I don't need another female over here yelling at me for playing too loud etc.

Ron, I highly recommend the Zoom H2, if you don't already have a laptop you can easily record with.
The H2 is very easy to use, captures great audio in WAV or MP3 formats. I put on a rhythm track on my studio boombox, turn on the H2, and just play along. Hit "stop" on the H2, and listen back through earbuds, or a cord to an input on the boombox. Simple.
I've been using this to record private and classroom lessons that I teach, and with a little post production enhancement, the audio is great. It also captures live bands incredibly well, in my experience.
I do wish you could pause it, but that's for some reason not possible. You can put an index mark, but I never use that.
