ReviewsKilled my iPodReview Date: 2007-11-29 Rating: 2 out of 10It cooked my iPod Classic. Apparently it really doesn't like anything other than 5th Gen iPods.
A Best Buy representative sold me an iTalk Pro and an 80GB iPod Classic as a way to record my DJ mixes and music made on my drum machine. It never worked right, and eventually committed seppuku. First, my recordings would be either too low to hear, so loud that clipping occurred every other second, or filled with noise. A direct line recording from my line out would be stuttered and useless. I never got a good recording from this device. Both the microphone and line in jack would record at the same time, filling my clean line recordings with noise from the mic. Finally, after just a few days, the iPod borked out. When I took it back to Best Buy, it was still clicking and flashing. It wouldn't even respond to a hard reset.
Beware this product. It killed my iPod.Randomly skips large sections of recorded lecturesReview Date: 2007-09-15 Rating: 4 out of 10I was using the iTalk to record my classes until I realized that my 50 minute files only have about 30 minutes of actual audio content. Although iTunes reports a file being 50 minutes long, it plays for only 30 minutes with random jumps in the middle leaving out large portions of the lectures.
Sigh. All those wasted recordings.Wrong product sentReview Date: 2007-08-18 Rating: 2 out of 10I specifically checked photos in additon to the model name and number when shopping for this product because I wanted to make sure I got the correct model...a slightly older one that is compatible with my iPod and sits ON TOP of the iPod.
The model number and pictures displayed by the retailer indicated I had was ordering the correct model.
However, the newer model was sent and it is not what I ordered. Assuming the retailer knew its products well and shipped one that was compatiable with the same iPods as the one I ordered, I tested the product. It does NOT work with my iPod.
And I assume I cannot return it because I opened it. These retailers really need to get their product descriptions and photos correct. I hope that Amazon begins to institute stricter conditions for retailers who want the benefits of Amazon's distribution and customer base.
I love the ease of ordering through Amazon...and, even if the price is slightly higher via the Amazon retailer, I will purchase a product via Amazon because of that convenience. This is, however, the second time I have been mislead by a retailer represented in the Amazon marketplace.Easy to use and works great!Review Date: 2007-02-06 Rating: 10 out of 10I can't believe what a great value this little gem is! I purchased it new for only $20. You just attach it to your iPod and bingo! your iPod becomes an easy-to-use, high-capacity voice recorder. It really couldn't be any easier to use. You're literally up and running in seconds, and the sound quality is terrific--crystal clear! It records very nicely, whether you're right up close to the microphone, or even 6 feet away or more. The sound is mono, of course, but a stereo version was not available for my iPod. It sounds great when played through my iPod ear buds or when transferred to the computer. The sound is a bit too soft when playing it back through the speaker on the iTalk itself, but that's of no consequence. My wife uses it to record her banjo lessons and play them back on the computer. You can't go wrong with this. It's very affordable and simple to operate. If you need something like this and your iPod isn't compatible with a stereo version of such a device, don't hesitate to get this one. I'm very pleased with my purchase! Brand: Griffin Technology
