For those on the list, I suppose there would be quite a difference in sound quality between e.g. the victor reader xtreme and the edirol recorders? Yes I know you cannot really cojmpare the two machines but I am simply curious. In my situation where recording quality of a conference or meeting is important, would it perhaps be better to go for a more dedicated recorder? Hope I'm not confusing anyone!!

I'm guessing that it would depend on the quality of your mike, but that's just a guess. I don't want to make a statement I can't back up.
