One of the pathologists I work with (I work at a cancer lab) recently suggested I invest in a digital voice recorder to help with my studying since I'm back in school to become a histotechnologist.
What does /g/ recommend for such a task?

/g/ recommends you go fuck yourself
/g/ is not your review, blog or advice site
Use siri :^)

What's wrong with using your phone or laptop? OneNote and basically any note-taking app literally has a record button you can use
>>53372695
Depends how you work but any recorder is fine. Phone are not that good, depending on the place you want to record in. (small closed space ? big auditorium ? )
Buy a cheap one, which doesn't look too shaby and be as close as possible to the sound you want to record.

>recording lectures
I'm tutoring Bio 1 this semester and these idiots amaze me.
They record the professor, take notes and pictures of the board, suck his cock during lab and office hours and STILL manage to do awful.
Don't be a moron. Just pay attention and study before the exam. The hardest shit you'll take is probably General Bio or some shit.

Can i have a cancer sample please?
I want to pass out in my sleep without feeling pain.
Thanxs

It really depends. I remember a mineralogy professor that was a bitter fuck, and in order to force people to attend his class, he didn't give out adequate study material and expect everyone to take notes.
If you have one of these guys, yeah, get a recorder.
But otherwise, I would never bother to re-listen something like 50 hours of lectures.

The audio quality on modern phones sucks ass, also one button recording ftw

doesn't work that way

I have pic related voice recorder, would recommend it for recording lectures (which is what i used it for). Bought it in 2012 so you might get it cheap or the next edition
If you have adequate notes and textbooks to study from, don't bother recording. Do you really have time to listen to lectures over and over?
>>53373198
wait are you in MY class?
i dont get how those idiots fail
not to mention even when the prof tells them recording is not allowed they go and do it anyway
Anything with a microSD slot I would presume
>>53372695
A lot of courses these days are recorded, for those days when you miss lecture.
You'll absolutely never go back and listen to the recording though.
>>53372695
this, if u dont wanna listen back to a fuzzy old-radio-tier recording

Zoom H1 is pretty nice. Cheap on ebay, works as USB mic, and you can get the little accessories kit for like $5 too.
>>53372695
is the pathologist in his 40's or older? Nobody uses those dedicated recorders anymore except for old people who've been using them since the beginning
