------------------
Sound recorder looks like it limits you to 60 seconds, but it doesn't. You
can add on to a 60-second file by just clicking the red "record" dot again
(don't move the cursor or click any other commands). You can do this as much
as you want, but don't forget you're building up megabytes. If your version
doesn't do this, download the recently upgraded Windows Media Player. For
the record we use Tandberg's Divace. It's more reliable, and you don't have
to stop every 60 seconds.

Hello everyone,
    I am completely at a loss in trying to find a free voice recording
tool for our language labs.  I've tried Windows 'SOUND RECORDER', however
it only limits you to 60 seconds of recording.  I've tried 'IOMEGA
RECORDIT', but it won't let you save on shared network drives OR on
floppies (as it expects you to have a zip drive, which we don't have).
We've also used 'PUREVOICE', but because of its native compression,
professors must have the program to listen to voice recordings done by the
students.  Furthermore, 'PUREVOICE' will appear to save your file, but if
it doesn't fit on your floppy, it will NOT warn you that there is no room
left.
        I basically want a Windows Voice Recording Utility that can save
into WAV format, and that is freeware.
..Any help is greatly appreciated.  There must be a decent program out
there!!

thanks
