hey all,
i was shopping around sound professionals and came across a recorder called the iriver with 20 gb of space. i was wondering what the difference is between this and a njb3 because they looked very similar besides the iriver's smaller size. any help is greatly appreciated!
peace,
danny

Try a Advanced Search (http://www.taperssection.com/yabbse/index.php?board=1;action=display;threadid=10460) on "iriver", there's been plenty of discussion of this in the past. The primary problem with the IRiver is it has a 700MB or so file size limit.
oh im sorry...
i spaced doing a search...thanks for the reply!

Just make sure you try the advanced search - the standard search isn't so hot. Even with the 700MB or so file size limit, I think there's at least one person here using the iriver. FWIW...
one quick question on the njb3...
can you change recording levels on the fly with a njb3?

I use my JB3 with an outboard ADC, so I set my levels there, but...I believe yes, going line-in to the JB3 you can adjust levels on the fly.
Check the Archival Info forum for a thread on the JB3, it includes some useful information as well as links to a website hosted by someone here with additional info as well.
danny, spreadahead is using one currently and loves it. pm him for some hands on experience information.

yes, you can.
+T and welcome, I have one question, off topic, whats the deal with the "I'm a llama!"? Ive seen a few people with the same quote just dont see what you all have the same one ::)
Iriver doesn't have record meters on the LCD either, from what I have read...
no visabl emeter reading yet... but I recorded a show last night with a MD with levels running from my IRVERS optical out, and it sounds GREAT!! And the "levels" you can mess with are the Bit rates for MP3 and the external mic pre--not the line in, I think.....
Now all I have to learn the software for tracking.........
