Creative Nomad II , Useable ?
« on: January 11, 2011, 10:20:55 AM »
Hey all ,
  I just found a Nomad II and it records but i was wondering ,
Has anyone here had any luck using this as a removable media
recorder for shows and what , if anything , do i need to do for it ..
Right now , it only has a 32mb card in it , that i can upgrade .
But any other knowledgeable , sp? , folks know anything about these nomad II ?
Thanks alt , you are appreciated !

IIUC; it doesnt record lossless, only as MP3 and ADPCM (compressed), right?
And what about line in/mic in? I was under the impression that the early series only have a mono built in mic?
See specs:

Apart from that, it uses an obsolete memory card format that was only manufactured up to 128MB. That makes it practically useless for concert taping:

Ebay it and use the proceeds for a better recorder! ;D
