    The recorder is easy enough to use for anyone without needing to read the manual. But the recorded sound is not loud enough even at highest volume.

    I use it to record white noise for my infant. I replace a different recorder and this one is less high tech that the 1st. When turning it on you have to reset the whole thing which takes time. Sometimes it records without my knowledge.
