[Athen] Ipad lecture/conference session recording

[Robert Espero]

I've been a big fan of Notability on my iPad2. It synchronizes the audio of
the lecture with your typed notes (similar to that of a Livescribe
Smartpen).

Hi Gerry,

I've been using Evernote on my iPad, Droid phone, and computers. It has a
built-in recording feature that I've used on the iPad. I like the app quite
a bit. I have tried it in staff meetings and it collects audio in a small
group setting just fine.

The limiting factor is the microphone sensitivity and location on the
device. It does work, but unless speakers are very close to the mic (within
six feet or so), or amplified, the mic will have a problem capturing useful
audio.

That's a limitation of the hardware and I don't think there's any way to
hook an external mic to an iPad other than bluetooth and I haven't tried one
of those.
