Morrunya Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 I don't go on any kite flying trip without my zune. It is 30GB, has all my videos (including about 38 full length movies for long plane trips), pictures of manouvers, and all my music. It is one of my best friends.

nobodyspecial Posted July 3, 2008 Report Share Posted July 3, 2008 Not an ipod fan here. I really like all my music that I rip at 320 Kbps to stay that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
awindofchange Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I use the Creative Zen player. I like the flexibility of not having to use I-tunes and being able to dump anything I want onto it without converting or format conflicts. My Zen W holds 60 gig, plays movies and MP3's. The best thing is that you hook it direct to your computer with a USB, it installs like a hard drive and you drag and drop. Super easy! Also has FM radio with multiple adapts for just about every memory card on the market. The only drawback to the Zen W is that it is a little big. I am looking at getting the smaller one without the screen cuz I can velcro strap it to my belt/arm while I fly without having to worry about cracking the screen by accident. Gotta have tunes when you fly tho, makes it all that much bettah! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baloo Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 Archos Gmini 402 works for me. Could do with an easier / quicker way of converting files for it though. Took a few tries B4 I got the B DVD sorted on it. One piece of advice if you don't mind. I am trying to find some secure headphones or easpieces that dont make me look like a gork of a cyberman.

steveb Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I'm a Creative fanboy. I've got 4 of their .mp3 players. I like the MuVo TX FM for the beach. It holds enough songs for an afternoon's flying session plus it has FM radio. There are several different play modes and EQs, plus a custom EQ to adjust the sound to your tastes. It takes an AAA battery, so I never worry about running out of power. I just pop another NiMH rechargeable and I'm good for another 16 hours. No special software is needed to transfer files- just drag & drop. It only takes a couple of minutes to put a fresh set of tunes on, so I change them every day. It only cost $35, so I have more $ for Revs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerochic Posted July 4, 2008 Report Share Posted July 4, 2008 I have a little Samsung MP3 Clip Player that works way well enough to suit my needs. I pay Macintosh more than enough money for my design equipment needs, I don't need to give them any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I just updated my FinalCut Pro for 4 'b's (new universal currency we can all understand!) ... just to do video's of Kites and kids! .... plus we are a 4 macs and seven iPod's household and I wouldnt have it any other way (dont tell my clients that though ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nobodyspecial Posted July 5, 2008 Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 Hmmm Baloo, if you want something nice for headphones, you should be able to find some Shure SE210's there alittle different then most heaphones but there worth it. I'm trying to ebay for a set of the SE 530's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morrunya Posted July 5, 2008 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2008 The Zune does have the videos, pictures, music, podcasts, wireless file sharing, USB connectivity and runs mp3, mp4, wmv, wma, and mpeg, as well as jpg. The only things I don't like about it is that if your computer is just an average computer, then the software will lag, and you cannot open it like an external hard drive.

In the case of their ipods and all the accessories that go along with them, I'm just not convinced it's worth it tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[email protected] Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 I haven't listened to music while exercising (or flying) outdoors for more than 4 years now. I was out walking a familiar fitness-walking trail awhile back, close to home (nice neighborhood), with my iPod shuffle playing, when I got mugged! Never heard them coming.... Punk kids Lately, I find that I'm dying to listen to some music while I fly, but I refuse to occupy both ears with headphones. I think I stumbled upon the solution this morning: mono. Not the disease I need to purchase a player that will mix stereo output into one headphone, so I can keep my other ear free to listen to my surroundings. Could I ask a favor of the Rev community? Could folks please check their players and let me know if there is a mono setting available? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbro Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Love my ipod nano touch,podcasts,fm radio,pedometer,clock, hooked up to Bose earbuds. Clips right to my pocket. Only way to fly Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[email protected] Posted September 12, 2011 Report Share Posted September 12, 2011 I'm sure the iPod Nano is great. Can it be set to play mono instead of stereo? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
