    you cant record on to them

    they are basically just so you can record audio to mp3 from the back of a mixer / audio source

    you plug an mp3 player / usb stick in to the ikey and that's what stores the audio - not the ikey

    the ikey plus is the better one to get if you are going to go that route, you can adjust the line level volume with that one


    I've not used it as the iriver i bought is the size of a 9v battery and has line in - so its much smaller, and much more convenient :)


    hope that helps, any more Q's just let me know :)

    is the pc in the same house?

    if it is, you can buy 15 meter cables pre made, or theres places that will make a cable for you for a very small price

    its very easy to make your own, but if you're not that way inclined, then the cheap way is to get them made for you :)

    I'm assuming you mean the software to record with here - I use sound forge 8 - 9 is out, but 8 does what i need

    if you don't want to buy/steal sound forge, Audacity is free and I've heard nothing but good about it
