You have to remember too, I believe Total recorder, records in 8 bit Mono?

Subject: [Nature Recordists] 24 hourly recordings?

For the past couple months I have been attempting to record a 24 hour
cycle-- midnight to midnight-- recording for 1 minute every hour.  I
want to record the changing seasonal soundscape.  I didn't do too well
turning on my minidisk every hour, so I tried using my laptop with an
inexpensive program, Total Recorder, that allows for setting a 24 hour
schedule.  This worked, but the sound is quite primitive, and I
suspect my generic sound card.  Does anyone have any inexpensive
solutions?  New soundcard, timer that would somehow interface with
Sony minidisk?  It's time for my September recording while the
crickets are still active.  (BTW, I enjoy every aspect of this list.=20
I even enjoy the ocasional debates about what is appropriate.)
Thanks.
Scott
