I've tried using Resco (the free demo version) as an audio recorder but the quality was really bad - to be fair I didn't have a clue what setting to put it at and tried a few with no success.

I need to record lectures and am just downloading noteM to see if I have any more success with that. Can you tell me the what I need to put the settings to for recording lectures?

Many thanks

I'm not using notem right now, so can't tell you the specific settings. but I'd suggest you try Vito sound explorer trial and see if the recordings improve.

It seems that noteM chooses it's own settings? When I was testing it, the recording time seemed to be just under 2 hours.

I tried it out, recording a lecture and considering I was sat at the back of the room, the sound quality was excellent. However, it only recorded for 3 minutes! What did I do wrong?

The only thing I changed was where I wanted to save the file to. On the test it was defaulting to the main memory. I don't understand the way it displays free memory and to make sure I didn't run out of memory while recording, I changed the option to save to built in storage.
