simple and easy to use. When you want to access your
recording sessions you don’t even need to have the
microphone attached to your iPod. All you need to do is
navigate to the extras menu and choose voice memos.
Transferring your recording sessions to your computer is
just as easy as recording. Connect your iPod to your
computer. If you have the settings set to manually update
you will be notified that there is a new voice memo on your
iPod and do you want to add this memo to your iTunes
library. You might want to decline this option. This is
because your recording sessions are only labelled by time
and date and they won’t be of much use when it comes to
tracking. Plus, you won’t want to mix your voice recording
sessions with your music files.
If your iTunes library settings are set to automatically
update you won’t have a choice about adding your
recording session to your library. You will find the sessions
added to the library with titles that look much like “7/3/06
11:41 AM”. This is why you will want to change your
preferences to manually manage songs and playlists. This
is done by clicking on the iPod icon (found in the lower right
corner of iTunes) when your iPod is connected to your
computer.
